Exactly, the entire point to split leagues into Wild and Modern was to give new players an affordable entry point which is less complicated and overwhelming. The way it is right now though is that Wild is just a dumping ground to run bots while Modern is crazy expensive with a clear expectation that cards will fully get devalued once they get removed into Wild.
With this model, the "New Player Experience" and "Planned Marketing" will be more money thrown away as nobody in their right mind would ever want to play or invest in a game like this.
