The end of double drop events

Whose brilliant idea was it to hit the kill switch on double drop events? I know we were told way back that they were done but honestly it was a big mistake. I mean the incentive to buy crystals to get a chance to get a ton of shards for characters who are regularly impossible to farm has gone. Toons are getting harder to farm nowadays due to lack of locations and with the galactic war, cantina and squad arena stores no longer changing inventory it's like a circus trying to 7 star a single toon when drop rates from nodes are horrific at best even with regular refreshes. I'm still a huge fan of the game but good lord when I spend anywhere between 200 to 300 crystals on a single cantina node and only get 3 shards for a single toon that's sad. All I ask is that we get double drop events back even if it's only once every few months like legendary events
