I think I would do it separately, either choose to play the land game (which includes the DEC stake, taxes, power cores, and all the other nonsense) or just plain 1-click stake max level cards on land and get passive rental returns based on the individual card.

This would give a double use-case for Land allowing players to choose based on their preference or the assets that they own. It's clear that many players who are invested don't have the time or will to play the game but there is no valid alternative to just botting right now. I still don't understand how this time requirement problem is not addressed more widely. Survival mode in a way makes this worse instead of better.

I do not like it even a bit. I need my cards to not be blocked.

It would make it so that players need to choose and that fewer will be left farming land resources which will make them a lot scarcer. In the end, choices have to be made and I guess the more options there are that players want, the more valuable the individual assets could become.
