Saying “irony” doesn’t constitute an argument. Irony.
People that say it’s good for the game don’t actually care what’s good or bad for the game long term and just know they want it and want it now. So they’ll make up whatever “reasonable” sounding arguments they can make up after the fact to pretend that they’re reasonable, forward-thinking people when they’re not. They just want it personally and that’s all they care about.
