The manageable set size makes it a good choice for newer master set collectors
While this move seems unlikely to directly create any reprint equity (although it could, if expensive cards from Portal and other weird non-Modern sets can be reprinted more easily without the "Modern" in front of "Masters"), taking the focus off of Modern specifically will gives Modern staples some room to breathe and, assuming the format and game keep growing, slowly increase in price until they are eventually exciting and valuable reprints once again
Many experienced collectors can gauge what a card does just by scanning the familiar patterns, even if they cant read Japanese fluently
The Pokmon inside of the card contains none of the holographic shine and instead resembles more of the original card print, but still has some differences to make it stand out
