Err, I only have a limited amount of time to respond right now. In short, I fully respect your opinion but wow, there is a lot to unpick in what you've said. This doesn't need to nor should it be realism vs. fantasy just because some players prefer to play without supernatural elements or with them very limited.
This game series is at its best when it can appeal to many different players. There has been experimentation with trying to find that balance which appealed to some and didn't appeal to others. My only problem with supernatural players is when they deride other playstyles or insist that every pack that isn't supernaturally-focused is bad or that we're done with non-supernatural content so we should only make content for them now.
As mentioned above, there are different ways to play the game and that's totally ok. This is not an entirely fantasy-based series, it's meant to be entertaining and to give players a sandbox or platform or ... game to have fun with. Different players find different things to be fun and not even all supernatural players probably want the same things. I am perfectly happy to co-exist with supernatural players and I hope that they get what they are looking for. For some of the points you make, I have those. For example, I built my own graveyard. I've had funerals or visits to the graveyard. I've built some other specialist religious lots for future funerals when appropriate.
I might be able to come back to this topic later but essentially if you are saying that players shouldn't have different reactions to what is immersion-breaking and what isn't then I don't know, I disagree.
Insisting that we should all want the same things and play the same way just doesn't make sense.
