HURR SONIC IS ABOUT GOING FAST WHY SHOULD I LEARN THE MECHANICS OF MOMENTUM-BASED GAMEPLAY

It's a miracle that Sonic had multiple layers of appeal, those who loved the Genesis games for the gameplay and mechanics must have felt betrayed when the games dropped the physics for automated movements. Skipping whole levels and zipping through them with boost pads seems to be what people think Sonic is as a game.
