Deeper stacked games, uncapped buyins, match-the-stack and straddles (or unlimited straddles) are all things that benefit your professional grinders to the detriment of your recreational player pool.
The grinders often aren't thinking about long-term sustainability of the player pool, they want to gobble up the fish as quickly as possible. So they overfish, slaughter the sheep instead of shearing them, and you wind up with less fish in your pond and more sharks.
Often rooms ONLY hear from the vocal minority of grinders who have a vested interest in structuring games and tournaments in a way that is beneficial to their personal pockets, but is a net negative for your poker economy and your business model as a room operator.
The silent majority of recreational players don't speak up and no one is advocating for them.
