Well, I'm not sure if it was just me or not but when I played Elite on
my IIgs years ago it had a little problem.  If you got into a fight
and blew up an opponent's ship the debris would not be erased from
your view screen so after taking out a few ships it was pretty much
impossible to see.

That might have been on a ROM 0 IIgs, though.  I'm not sure if I had
the ROM 1 upgrade when I tried it and I know for sure I've never tried
it on a ROM 3.
