Agreed with the others that this feels like a sneaky way to increase the price of boosters.

But I can at least see the reasoning. Having 2 kinds of boosters was making it harder on game stores and set boosters being far more popular means draft was getting shorted. I think the changes will take some getting used to but it looks like they already have plans in place to deal with them.
