I prefer if we are to limit air to go with a minimum of four Fightas than to add an artificial limit of 1/4. But i do not think that we need either, as Kyusschains said, they are needed and on the other side this list loses a lot more than others if going heavy on air, and as proof of that, almost no one has tried that with OGBM
If they are still needed, that's an issue with the list itself, which can be fixed. But, if people really don't want to take a full 6 formations of fightas, then the change of limiting it to one air selection per Gargant still permits the requisite air, but at least attempts to curb the potential for outrageous spamming.
And the list is still about Gargants, not about air power. If there's an issue with the functionality of the list, adding airplanes instead of doing something with the Gargants or smaller relations in the list feels like a clumsy and lazy fix that only detracts from the really strong and cool theme of Massive Stompy Orks!
Again i think that you have to take into account that they are Orks, they are unorganized and crazy, same as how you can take an all Gunzmob list with Ghaghkull and it is still Orky, makes no problem that lots of Fightas can be taken on this one, as no one will try that on a Tournament which make the list still Orky while maintaining variety and craziness, even in appearance from the point of view of a list for Tournaments. It is a different list philosophy and other races list philosophy should not be taken, in a similar fashion to what Jimmyzimms said that we are tending to make all the lists the same and we are restricting ourselves.
Still this list is very restrictive already for an Ork one, so even more would be nasty (not that i am thinking that all Ork lists should have the same flexibility, but that we should not go to the other extreme like many news lists, that while they can fit for those races, do not for Orks).
Still i think that we are talking for no reason, as we should do that if that kind of list poses a problem, first of all, not before we get to test it.
