I'm aware of the fact that the game isn't that complicated and is thus based on random probability (I know, it doesn't even make sense, but neither does TE), which is the whole reason for my animosity towards it.
While it is possible. TE still has to make sure they will increase revenue. Any small change could cause many players to leave the game and there is no point putting in any effort if there is no revenue/profit gain. They have to get their analytics done right. We can discuss what we want all day here but if their data and statistics tell a different story, it would be a no go. I do not blame them, all businesses have annual profit growth targets.
