What's the reason for a 7* Champ requirement gate in WOW Gauntlet?

in General Discussion
The individual fights that panned throughout the weeks had certain champ requirements but were not gated to rarity. With the gauntlet dropped, why limit champ based on rarity to complete/ explore the quest?

Thoughts?

    Herc

    Gating for just one particular champion seems crazy. But, that champ being Herc makes sense!

    Because the pool of 7 stars is limited as compared to 5 and 6 Starz so to make it a challenge

    Pool size wrt rarity does make it more harder!!

    Because there had to be something to make it harder.
    Rather than certain tags, they just made it so that you had to bring a couple 7* on one path, 1 7* on the other.

    Gating based on tags would seem repetitive.

    Because Then Kabam's wording of, "6* are still very much relevant with Ascension" gets nullified.
    Kabam don't want to make exclusive content for 7*, yet.

    Eliminates the Herc/Heim synergy. I wanted to go back in to try out the old Electro/Heim cheese on Aegon (build up the furies and then let him hit you) but with the gate, it's not possible. Clever devs.

    It adds a little bit of difficulty without requiring the objectives to be too restrictive.

    If you could have either:
    1. Class based objectives with some 7-star restrictions
    2. Tagged based objectives and no 7-star restrictions

    I know I would prefer #1. I would much rather be able to complete as many objectives in one run than have to rerun annoying fights multiple times. Spiderham's evade annoys me to no end everytime I have to face him in difficult content.

    The side benefit is that it forces players to use 7-star champions that might not normally use, and make players appreciate non-Herc type champions. I know that my appreciation of Gamora has risen dramatically after doing a Cosmic only run.

    Much better than tags.

    Was she really good for the Hulkling fight? Thinking of a Cosmic team with Ronan/Gamora/Aarkus for that left side.
