I took a break last weekend at Nuke-con after running my Traveller game & play Red Dragon Inn 1&2 to actually read through the Mongoose Traveller corebook. Much better then my first read, especially the chargen. Definitely the book T4 should have been.
Though I admit still I'm glad I bought with a discount coupon.
With MegaTraveller (& TNE to a certain extent), it was the assassination of Strephon & the breakup/collapse of the Imperium I disliked more the ruleset. It seemed the time period was beset by games set in post-collapse, post holocaust, post-nuclear war genera no matter what the genre.
Though with TNE, I did have problems with the rules. But I ran any TNE stuff with CT rules. Much the same way I through most of the rules for Space 1889.
