Why do you think that, when it was the biggest complaint from last year - and was publicly acknowledged too - but is exactly the same this year (in every gameplay video)?
In-fact, not only was it publicly acknowledged, but it was explained that it is the way it is to keep the flow of the game - they feel it's one or the other, and "flow" is the priority. I'm sure it'll be a better game that 2018 - but one of the issues we have as a community is creating expectations and then shooting Konami down when they don't appear (e.g. "no stadium editor, BOYCOTT THE GAME").
(Yes, fouls is different - it's a big issue for me too, as it is everyone who reads this forum surely - but we've got a categorical "no" on this one, so it's one we've got to suck up. For this year, at least.)
Some things they've listened to, agreed with and actively worked on (e.g. shot variety). Some things, like the lack of fouls... They've listened, but they don't agree.
