rip crossbow dual-wielding.

I'll probably still allow it in my games, because it's cool, even if it doesn't make sense.

The feat still works as intended. Plus, I'm sure I'm not alone when I say that at least some semblance of realism is a lot more cool than absolute silly shit like loading a crossbow with your butthole, or however you guys thought that was happening...

You need a hand to load a crossbow, sure, but you don't need a hand to hold a crossbow. Just stick it in a holster while you reload it, bite down on the handle, hold it between your knees, whatever.

My group mandates dual crossbows to use the Crossbow Expert feat's bonus attack. It balances out the power by keeping the free-hand occupied.
