Why am I suspicious of DA once again being the first SM codex out of the gate with a new release?

OK I GET IT, Dark angels are the first founded chapter, the big brother... But REALLY GW? Dark angels were first out the last edition too and look where that put them. I really hope that taking skyfire shot upgrade doesn't compleatlely exchange the normal fire ability. I doubt that there are any (really) good reasons for removing the standard shots, If they can carry frags and kracks, why not just allow the player to choose one of them to be removed? Or are the missile laucher completely adapted for skyfire targeting? :S
Lets just hope being first out this time around isn't such a bad thing.
Are you kidding? Do you know how ridiculous that would make missile launchers? Give them AA and AV? No. I think their is going to be more to the Skyfire rules perhaps something to do with Skimmers and Fast Vehicles. Perhaps something along the lines of the launcher itself being equipped to target things faster then a normal tanks.
Nothing wrong with them giving up the ability to effect ground targets to shoot down aircraft. You think ML spam is bad now? Give them all three missles and you'll never see another type of heavy weapon in a marine army.
Asmodai coming back? Good news indeed! Our current psychic powers getting changed? PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE! I haven't used a librarian since the current book gave us these crap(in my opinion) powers and have been annoyed since the BAs got our old ones plus better and actually useful options! As for the Tempest, seeing as I have three already I would love to have them in the new book but actually be able to field them without argument and possibly lower points cost The DAs got me into 40k in 2nd edition but the change in fluff and rules have made me play eldar and IG far more, looking forward with a truck of salt that they fix the book. Who knows they might even give artificer armour to more than techmarines and special characters
What about Brother Bethor!?!?
