Nobody here want to remove your one precious portal, so relax. We only want GGG to make the other 5 work too...

But... It's better if GGG fixes other issues, before reverting back to '6 portal meta'. Eg.:

- The number of map bosses should be tripled
- Maps should be smaller and / or less of a nightmare to navigate
- Travel checkpoints in maps
- There should be less visual clutter (environment & effects)
- Ground effects & on death effects should be toned down (way too much of them)
- Base movement speed should be increased a bit (cca 15%)

There's lots of improvements GGG can do to make the experience better, without removing the one portal penalty.

I die much less in PoE 2 than I used to in PoE 1 where it doesn't matter much. And frankly I think this creates a better progression experience - not because it's punishing, but because it forces you to build & play your chars in a more balanced way.
