I can see the issue here. A board with just 6th gen, even if they all actually were contained in it, would be quite drab as the conversation would rarely reach back without people who can easily reference the earlier generations. It's easy to see why it's preferential to add 6th gen to /vr/ rather than just have a different board for 6th gen.

On the other hand, 6th gen isn't retro and never will be so go back to /v/.
