8-Star Champs reference already in game

So with this month's PlatPool, we have the Booster Packs that are a Selector of a piece of PlatPool.
The item named “Fourth Rate Booster Pack” is a selector for a piece of 5* PlatPool.
But why call it “4th Rate” ?? (are they saying that someone smarter would have bought the Vancouver Titans eSports team instead of Wrexham A.F.C. ?)
Anyways, with the “Third Rate Booster Pack” being the selector for a 6* PlatPool piece, you can see where this is headed.
Kabam has purposely tier'd these Booster/Selector Pack names so that there is room for a “First Rate” pack to eventually be for an 8* PlatPool.
The un-mentioned, but explicitly implied, reference to 8* Champs is already here in the game.

Don’t think it rises to the level of Tinfoil Hat stuff like if you swipe a crystal in a certain direction on the screen (or see the crystal coming into view out from a certain corner of the screen when initially loading), when opening crystals it would result in the better (higher Star) champ being pulled (yes, that was a real theory some people had a number of years back).
But, could people offer their different views as to why they think Kabam decided to name these ones “Fourth Rate” and “Third Rate” terminology, if not to imply that a “First Rate” one would be placeholder terminology referencing a future 8* PlatPool.
What?
That's only if the game lasts that long tho, so who knows.
