A huge part of TBs is obviously creating another way to try to force players to farm little used characters/ships and spend money or fall behind on G12 gear and ROLO and Hermit Yoda shards. That's why the Hoth Bros are mandatory. That's why Lobot, Ugnaught, Bistan, Bodhi and Pao show up much more frequently than any of the Jedi, Clones, Resistance, etc. characters. That's why Platoons require non-farmable characters and ships and why it's WAI for them. Sucks but really not surprising.
