comment Does exploration movement rate in Basic D&D (B/X) include trap/secret-door detection?
On page B9 in Moldavy's Basic D&D it explicitly states that the bonus applies when Elves actively search. In general your answer is good advice but I downvoted as the OP was referring to a specific edition of D&D.

comment Fast-paced and brutal rpg system
Slow as it took a while to resolve a hit? Or slow as you had to look up rules all the time? Or slow as it took forever to down an opponent? There are lots of way a combat can be slow.

comment What are the big differences between the D&D editions?
@ExTSR, feel free to edit my answer. As one of the authors of an older edition you undoubtedly have more insight than I as to why it was made and why certain elements were present and other were not. I fully support the collaborative nature of this site.
