Oh, I feel you! CS is one of those games where, at least with regards to weapon balance, it's in such a good spot that the community actively doesn't want many changes. Most people are also content with the same 7 maps and don't play new ones when they're added.
Still, I think seeing a proper map rotation with competitive seasons would be really cool, especially since the community makes so many high quality maps!
A bit more could be done to battle cheaters though, as those have been getting very bad in the last few months once again.
Definite agree on the watchability, CS is the only e-sport I really watch the big tournaments for, they just nailed the aspect of it being easy to understand and creating a lot of high-adrenaline moments.
