For me its not fun pulling a chase card after spending thousands and thousands on packs.
Im a wotc boomer and i remember getting really excited pulling a jungle scyther holo from the few packs i was able to open back in the good old days.

Opening mail and getting stuff i want is more fun than chasing stuff that takes forever to pull like swsh alt arts tbh.

People spend $35,000 onwards to climb mount everest and it’s not guaranteed success too.

If as many people tried to chase a card as people try to climb the everest annually there would almost nobody be attempting to open a pack anymore.
Terrible comparison😅
Probably just as terrible as my grammar.

I agree it feels like sets are too big, though on balance wotc gave the reason for English getting non holos for jungle etc was playability, because people didn’t want to play with holos.
Personally I think making sets take more packs to complete is the real reason, but it can be seen as a justification for alt arts and full arts.
That said, I still miss being able to complete a set from a couple of booster boxes.

I think it has to do with your individual luck. 
Some people is able to pull M__nbr__n with just 1 Evolving Skies pack while some others took over 3,000 packs.
some people are able to hit the jackpot with just one scratch off, while others ruin their life spending all of their extra money on scratch offs only to get a few moderate Ws throughout that time.
