You're missing the point.
EA don't want the casuals and lower/average skilled gamers to go to career mode or clubs, they want those players on UT, that's why they have to change the game to keep those gamers on UT.
Also just because you find it easy to adapt doesn't mean everyone does and gaming is for everyone that wants to or have we all forgotten that these days. Just because content creators/pro scene/wannabes want everything ultra competitive all the time doesn't mean the majority do
When I sit down to game and relax after the stress of real life I don't want to have to sweat and stress, a more casual experience benefits EA's player retention numbers, revenue and the majority of gamers on this game.
