Lack of Ini Files in LE vs Orginal?

I was always one for tweaking the backend to my playstyle using the ini files but see they were removed in LE? 

Missing:

BIOEditor.ini

BIOGuiResources.ini

BIOInput.ini

BIOParty.ini

BIOQA.ini

MassEffectConfig.ini

 I do not understand why you would constrain people for not tweaking their back ends but allowed it in the first 3 games. To me I like the new enhancement but taking away the ability to add a larger inventory or smaller inventory that I find odd. I also would change the buying price from and to merchants were it took more for certain items or less for them to buy them. Why would I sell a used gun for close to the same amount I bought it for. You made the LE a standard unchangeable game vs the Original were it was highly customizable to a persons play style. In other words I feel you dumbed it down!

    This is origin so directly from them not a third party.  Like I said the missing files are NOT added in either steam OR Origin.

    BIOEditor.ini

    BIOGuiResources.ini

    BIOInput.ini

    BIOParty.ini

    BIOQA.ini

    MassEffectConfig.ini

    Only ones either get are BIOEngine.ini, BIOGame.ini, and BIOGame.ini. These were also with the original so see the difference? only 3 useless ini files from LE that are your standard "Lets make it like console versions with NO customization on the back end for LE" and let the Original files that people could change the back end on the original 3 games be forgotten! If I wanted a standard play were we can not change the backend like we were able to on the original I would have bought a console version of the game.  They took the Dev Console out in LE along with ALOT of other backend tools you could change in the INI files in BIOInput, BIOParty, ect.....They refuse to give an answer as to WHY.
