Please don't change it back.

You haven't played the game long enough evidently. "Speed-harvesting" is a very special technique, used in response to the introduction of "cued" harvesting. It allows harvesters who were "good", to be "good" again. Contrary to what you may see in some fast harvesters, a good "speed harvester" is an asset to a farmer. He/she will clean the farm fast, leaving no stray crops. A good "speed harvester" does not start blasting from the entry point, but rather start as close to the top as possible... right to left, top to bottom as fast as you can to get 70-80% (minimum) of the crops. After clearing a large section, you go back and clean up your misses. It's a very fast and competitive technique. If you are not into competitive games, go to Pogo and play Old Maid!
