>you took a game with a serious premise and shoved wacky party hat bullshit up its asshole and demanded everyone cater to you, and none of you were there for the original thing
Back in the day my playgroup switched to commander because it was a lot more convenient format from a casual perspective.
It was cheaper since only one copy of each card was needed, easier to play with a varying number of players, didn't require paying attention to standard rotation, made higher mana cost cards viable, less try hard decks could compete due to more powerful decks being targeted first by other players etc.
I don't think the commander players any more than WotC intended for commander to take over the game but when it began to gain popularity WotC started prioritizing it to please the growing commander player base which led to it becoming even more popular.
