The following information comes from co-director Tai Yasue...
- Tetsuya Nomura made the request for a system which forces the playable character to change
- Yasue's reaction to the request was a feeling of fear.
- he thought this would change the tempo of the series too much
- while the game keeps count of how many times you change, it doesn't impact gameplay
- the game's "free flow action" system was also thought up by Nomura
- this system was made by starting with Birth by Sleep data
- the team planned for two or three days, developed for one or two weeks, and ended up with the basic idea we see in Dream Drop Distance
- The Dream Eater mini-game Flick Rush was originally planned to make use of the systems' camera
- you could take a picture of your friend and use that in the mini gam
- this idea was shot down by Nomura

It isn't bad one bit. Besides if you try it out sometime and don't like it you can always manually drop though you won't get any bonus rewards.
