Easy, because of the scalping problem pokemon TCG has, it's hard to buy shit when shit's off the shelves and knowing that buying aftermarket pauper bulk is lining up the pockets of some insidious bastard is a very fucking major turnoff to playing PokeTCG.
To say less that

I am a 30 years old boomer, i should never, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, be near Pokemon or any space that has kids going around because i truly fucking hate Children and the further away i am from them, the better it is for me and most importantly the better it is TO THEM.

Fun is a buzzword that does not apply in this argument because it does not matter how much fun i could be having with PokeTCG, there are many colossal major problems with getting into it on my end that i'd rather deal with YGO becoming a literal fighting game where there are no turns and everybody's playing with a starting hand of 30 cards than making a poor kid sit in front of my fat fuck ugly bastard visage if i go to a pokeTCG tourney, and no amount of "BUT IT'S FOR EVERYONE!!!!!" is going to change my mindset.
