Oh yeah, I wasn't trying to say that Luanti had an incredibly original thought with volumetric lighting. There's been (pre-resource-pack) volumetric lighting mods for Minecraft probably already a decade ago. I was rather just wondering, when the proof of concept has existed for a whole decade, why do they decide to include it now. It probably would have worked well even on weaker phones three years ago already...
