They don’t seem to be familiar enough with the game to understand which perks are considered “good” or “bad”. Going by Cyrup in this thread they didn’t even realize up to a few weeks ago that players might consider current perks a problem:

> Platform, device version and operating system: Xbox one Screenshot or image: What you were expecting to happen, and what actually happened: I was expecting the 4 match created by Flammifer to generate an extra turn but it did not. What I think is happening is that the final Flammifer weapon trait “volcanic” (explode a random red gem) is occurring after Flammifer creates gems but before the gems created are counted for an extra turn. This happens often enough that I would have never upgrad…

I’d propose that the community compiles a list of possible replacement perks, that has already been done months ago though (e.g. gaining 1 red mana instead of destroying 1 red gem). I strongly suspect that whatever we write here, it’s not going to reach the powers able to change something.
