If you're interested in the history of the hobby, it's important, and there are good bits in there, but... yeah. It's extremely messy, sometimes outright broken, and sexist even by the standards of its time and context.
I love 3e, but it was the first edition I played. If you look at it and think, "No, absolutely not," I can't argue with you. :P It's a mess, but it's in my trash pile.
Oh yeah, I hear ya. 2e was my first DND (though not my first RPG, that was Warhammer Fantasy Roleplay 1e), and I never want to play it again but Planescape still holds a special place in my heart! Fortunately, though, now we can have our nostalgia while playing mechanically better games instead!
