Crystal Cleansing Event: Are the rewards enough to make you stop hoarding your crystals?

For me, no. Just no. I have ZERO ambition for this.
I thought it would be an event worth putting the effort into, but it's not. IMO, opening 1 billion crystals is an absurd community milestone, for trash rewards. Many of the rewards are just bad and underwhelming. I don't expect them to be super OP, but they could have been better than the irrlevant 5* shards, and outdated 6* shards that benefits smaller accounts. And who needs a crystal profile pic and a title???
The best things we'll be getting out of this are 1,000 7* shards, 10 revives, 300 units, and an exalted crystal? (which is really going to be a 6* champ, but even those are not that impressive for the ending milestone we have to reach.
Where's the incentive for higher progression players?
MCOC hoarders, what are your honest thoughts on the event? Do these rewards motivate you to open your hoarded crystals?
*Note: If I'm wrong about the event, I'll gladly stand corrected.

I don't see what's the kink of grouping every progression level together, makes no sense, hope banquet will be better and will be strict progression tier.
But if you open enough crystals, i.e., enough to reach top rank, you get unique profile pics and emotes

Regarding rewards, primordial dust works for me.
If you aren’t interested in it, just play the game the same way you normally would and enjoy some extra free stuff along the way. It ain’t that deep.
If you’re already hoarding you’ll like have this freely available to you many times over. The rewards aren’t a big deal but it’s a nice thing I guess.
Also I'm a chief crystal hoarder, I practically do not open crystals (unless I have to) and I never have to because I always have resources in overflow (I'm practically rich in game lmao),I still have crystals from when versus mode in arena was a thing, even act 1 crystals.I open 7* star crystals but began saving mine as well as titan for banquet season where I intend to do a big opening. This event is not encouraging me to open even my Gold crystals AT ALL. What am I gonna do with 5* shards, I literally have a million and I haven't opened a 5* since early 2023. Unless there is a huge milestone that I haven't seen and this crystal opening spree has anything to do with the 7* cheeilth or any upcoming event, I most likely will not be taking time out of my day to participate in this
These paltry rewards aren't even worth the time it takes to consider them.
The initial milestones peaked at 5 million; but ultimately the community managed over 11 million deaths in the Necropolis 🤷♂️
Pure selfish imo. And posting a semi brag about it is a whole move in itself 🙄
Kabam has said this in the past when they do forced openings of old crystals like these. They do them so they can clear the data off their servers.
