There are options that read like this.

I’m not sure what you referring to. The rewards system limits the number of buyers/owners that can happen, but an individual’s ownership never has limited access to the files that are uploaded to the page.

Based on my read of what you posted, you’re making complaints about functionality unrelated to what the original poster is talking about. It’s fine to make feature requests and complaints, but I ask that you don’t hijack other topics for your requests.

“Each item 50% off! or buy everything for $116.85! Regularly $233.85”. Half of 233.85 is 116.925, so I guess there is rounding errors with those 15 items…

When a sale bundle shows that message it means that each item is individually 50% off, and the developer also set an explicit “bundle buy price” to enable buying everything at once. The percentage and fixed amounts amounts are not calculated from one another. https://itch.io/docs/creators/sales#getting-started/sale-options

I’m not sure what you referring to. 

I am referring to this very thread here, with the "obviously" you did not quote.

There are options that read like this. Obviously. I think op might talk about the option to sell a limited amount of a thing.

Also, the complaints about confusing features were not about those features as such, as I explained in the last paragraph. They were examples for a general issue that seems to occur frequently: users do not grasp what some features on this site do. (Or else, why does this thread exist in the first place?) There are many, many threads in community that show this issue at the core. Maybe it has to do with the world wide audience. Maybe it is just quirks of itch. I could give more examples, but those quirks do get troublesome if it is about payment options. I assume that for everyone not understanding a certain feature and posting about it, there are many more that have the same issue, but do not speak up.

You have more insight about the support inquiries. If people ask "stupid" questions about a feature/pricing option/etc, it means, that the site might explain it better. Like those limited downloads. And, it is speculations that those rewards were meant, since there is something limited about it. I believe there is a language/translation issue somewhere.

But however it happened, it looks to me, that op did read/understand something on itch to mean, that there is an option to have limited downloads.
