Interesting. I think it'd be difficult for WotC to assail something so old as this, when checking out an old and dusty library book would resolve the case to a judge nicely. Now they might try... that's the risk here, especially as history is forgotten by pop culturists stuck in current year mentality.

No, not at all. I use the current edition in play at my home table. The updated edition just fixes all the typos and errata. It's not a must-buy if you already own the rules. You'll want the Rogues Gallery sourcebook.
If you're feeling inspired to move away from an exact clone of the D&D armour class system anyhow, maybe it'd be worth considering something based on the armour coverage and penetration research you did for that Axioms issue.
While your article did validate the D&D system for one very specific case, it disproves it for the majority of cases, and as a long-time supporter I'm fairly confident you're capable of doing better.

So does the currently released edition become obsolete?
