SWGOH State of play
Hello. I'm writing this as a ten year veteran of the game. This is the opinion of a player who has seen the game change, not the opinion of any streamer or YouTuber. Like many players I've seen SWG...

Everyone I know, including myself, wants a sandbox mode. However consider the problem with your statement of "live pvp".
Right now for everything I have seen that is "live", like TW or GAC, whenever someone battles, it shows that the opponent is currently attacking that squad, but it gives a delay when the opponent finishes the battle, like around a few seconds. This can make the sandbox mode irritating especially if a time limit is set on those battles, as there will be a significant delay: the opponent will take time to think which ability to use, who to target, etc etc, plus that loading delay.
I would suggest that rather than your ally playing live, we could have an option to select an ally's roster, choose units or datacrons for an 'opponent' squad, and let the AI battle from it, so the delay isn't there and, besides, as sandbox is for practise, going against the AI makes sense since every battle that exists is against the AI, so I agree with your second suggestion on sandbox
Other than that, WE NEED SANDBOX!!! It could be 'managed' by that Kel Dor NPC (like as a tutorial when a player opens it for the first time), who sits near the challenges too, as he also says "I've been dusting off my old military texts to come up with new Challenges for you" when he is clicked
The way I look at it, the live pvp in a sandbox mode would be pretty simple. Just invite another player in your guild while they are on. If games like magic the gathering can managed it then GoH can aswell pretty easily.
Yeah the graphic standards are different but that shouldn't have too much of an effect regardless.
While that would be lovely it won't happen, and quite rightly so. The game is free to play, it is financed by those who do choose to spend. Therefore CG are quite within their rights to only create new content or modes that can generate money. Adding free features makes zero business sense.
Its also not as simple as you think as- there is no live PvP element in the game so this would need to built from the groundup and would require some kind of extra load on existing infrastructure. Also it has a huge effect- its pretty obvious that there are far more calculations needed in a pvp matchup in SWGOH than there is in MTG. To be frank you haven't got a clue about this.Your list is nothing new, and even stretching a bit if you're complaining about false advertising too and examples that are not false advertising as such. Why? Because a game based on an IP can legally show images or video based on the IP, and there is no stipulation that the game includes those scenes or events. Also no doubt the adverts will have "not actual gameplay" nestled somewhere in the advert.

Hmmmm never make assumptions over coding. The simplest things could be the most difficult and the most difficult ideas could be pretty simple. The rumour about SWGOH's coding though......not much is simple.
