MLP CCG Seaquestria and Beyond Rant

Never thought I would do something like this but it came up due to what happened with this set.
 
For those of you who play the My Little Pony Collectible Card Game, you should know that the newest set, "Seaquestria and Beyond", released not too long ago. Like previous sets, this one does further evolve the game by adding in new strategies along with strengthening current ones but there's one issue that is sure to truly piss people off, and that has to do with the rarities or lack thereof.
I don't know what Enterplay were thinking--or smoking--when they made this decision, but essentially there are no foil cards in this set at all despite the rarities still being there. Super Rares are basically commons now with the SR suffix and Ultra Rares are also commons but with the UR suffix and a golden stamp designating their status as Ultra Rares. If you pardon my language here  but what the bloody hell happened that caused such a regression? :glimmer:
 
Is Enterplay trying to cut costs by regressing back like this? Was it because the card art was incompatible with the foil technology? Or did they just rush this out in order to have something for the holiday season? It could be one of these answers or something else entirely but the fact is that this is just disgraceful and doesn't warrant shelling out a great deal for this set. Am I upset about this? Yes but I'm not completely blinded by anger. I'm sure others are upset about this too. When people get booster packs and boxes in any card game, they look forward to seeing what foiled cards they end up getting. Sure, it does borderline obsession but the point is that they want to see what they get.
 
By taking away the foil and leaving us with what we got, Seaquestria and Beyond feels like a major step backward. Granted, I do like the stamp used on the Ultra Rare cards and they should retain it but don't take away the foil in the process. Now I know this sounds immature of me but I just had to vent out at this disgraceful action.
 
If this is going to be the standard from now on, I feel Enterplay should be stripped of the license to publish this game and given to someone who knows what they're doing.
