Should ½ chess have it's own catogory?

We all love lichess for its distinctiveness and it's aspiration to keep innovating until it's the #1 free chess platform.

Lately, ½ minute chess has been implemented, which is astonishing and brings the game to a whole new level. This has however, fluctuated the ratings a bit.
Opponents that i can defeat pretty easily at 1+0 now have 2400 rating because of ½ minute chess and rise even more, people who aren't that fund of premoving stay clear of ½ minute.

Now, getting to the point of all this, i don't mind the current settings at all, but should the ½ minute has his own category? That would even out the rating fluctuation a bit.

Don't ask me what the name of it would be (super bullet, lightning, etc), i'll leave that up to you.

No.

For the record, variant ratings has fluctuated from players who primarily play on 0+1 as well. But ½ is bullet.

I suppose it should be in another category. Because rating can be really different in 1+0 and ½+0. I personally don't worry about this, because I only play ½+0, which I'm better at.
But with creating a new category there is a problem. It would be necessary to create some new icons, branches, change a lot of things on the site. This is a lot of work.
But maybe I'm wrong.

I think for many reasons it's preferable to keep the categories number low, and classify 1/2 under bullet. Keeps everything simpler and cleaner.
The definition of bullet chess has changed though, but I expect ratings and players will adapt with time.

Why not, we already have 7 other ratings, maybe put 1/2 and 0+1 under a new one together.

lots of people play 3 minute and 5 minute. 3 minute which is llike 1/2 and 5 minute being 1 minute 3 minute wouldnt have its own category of superblitz

1/2 min is like bullet in berserker mode, and Berserker mode is still one bullet category; I'm not playing bullet since a long while and I'm not playing 1/2 neither, but I do not agree to change it since it keeps the berserker idea.

While it's true rating fluctuates more (thanks to that I got over 2000 (and 2100 too!) for the first time), it's up to developers to decide. Thanks for 1/2 bullet though. ;-)

I agree w/ Bikfoot, if you're fast with the mouse you can get 2500+ bullet, even though you're 1800 blitz. Website is filled with 1800 players who think they're GM level or something because they're 2500 "bullet" :D
