This may seem silly to you but this is WOTC being smart. Current fans are not players, they do not play D&D.
Sometime ago it became cool to be "geeky" what ever the fuck that suppose to mean, worse thing that ever happened to our hobbies. Now we have "gamers" that played 10 games of LoL 5 years ago but they identify as gamers.
How do non-players become geeks? They buy trash, they will buy mugs and t-shirts and salt shakers and advertise how much of a geek they are.
Why try to cater to those who play and care for the game, those are hard to please, they are demanding and they are putting a lot more thought in to games then the creators are willing to.
Case in point, a girl that I've known for more then a decade had a lot of star wars and harry potter stuff on her desk. Obviously I started talking to her about SW, she did not even know who Palpatine was. She and those like her are the money makers that are easily pleased.
