Apparently you did'nt explain it good enough, cause I listen, but I don't understand.
Perhaps I should mention you can't bypass guards and gates in HotA and DD is only once per day, otherwise I agree, they are too much.

If you remove DD and Fly on a XL +underground map, you are just gonna make the map take even longer. That imo 
Good maps don't straight up remove all the strong spells, they are carefully rewarded in pre-defined locations. They also don't leave them to complete RNG, allowing people to get them from any random reward, which will completely push the game in one player's favor. I would (and have) even put low-tier spells like Slow, Haste and Blind in this category. Even Summon Boat and Water Walk can be problematic to the designed map progress. Limiting all the game-breaking spells and other tactics keeps the game interesting, only gaining access to them later in the scenario means you can't always go with the same old strategies.

But you can't really do that, tomes of magic x 4 exists and Spellbinder's Hat, some even allow Angel Wings. (Not me) And stuff like Warrior's Tombs and Shipwreck Survivors exists, they can randomly provide major and relic artifacts. +Dragon Utopias and Temple of the Seas in HotA.
I guess you somehow wanna limit all that too?

Disabling spells in the map settings disables them from all sources, except when you manually place the spell somewhere.

Really? In H3 complete without mods? I was quite sure, you can still use them with the hat/tome and you can also learn them from heroes that start with them. But I haven't tried that in ages, so I might be mistaken. I simply disable these artifacts/heroes.

Yes, but then you will also know exactly what to do to get those spells, if you designed the map.
AI won't know and other human players probably won't either, unless they have played the map before.
I like the unpredictability. If I just knew where to go, there would be no challenge at all.

You complain about things never happening. Are there pyramids in custom maps? 99,999% no., and if there is one sometimes, it is dully placed so you reach it.
Are there pyramids in random maps? yes, but as you play vs computer only, why care. You will get them all, and even if bad spell, why bother, just pick angel wings nearby.

Apparently you can't read, because I just said Angel Wings are not allowed in my map.
Pyramids are, but I am not sure they should be.

There is zero mention of your map only, in the opening post. So we talk about an unknown map, which nobody will probably play because you will never publish, then it evolves in general discussion, yet the situation you describe will never be found in another map. Waste of time?

Maybe not in the opening post, but just a few posts ago, I mentioned Angel Wings are not allowed in map and then you go ahead and mention I should just go get Angel Wings. So you can't have read that post or followed the discussion much.

That's cause what you call a discussion is everybody agreeing to disagree with you on that totally bonkers idea and you still convinced you're right cause... "the others don't play/ don't know what the f... is in my map/mod".
