    The "legit" reason is that Yoshi.P and his team seem to believe that wards are a superior system compared to instanced housing (which traditionally makes it much easier to balance supply and demand) but are unable to deal with issues such as supply and demand disparities or server capacity limitations.

    So while there was no "arbitrary" decision to limit the supply itself, that supply is limited a result of an "arbitrary" design decision to pursue a particular housing system model. And while I can certainly see where the devs are coming from and even agree that in many aspects wards are superior to instanced housing, I don't think it justifies maintaining a system that just doesn't work well enough for years while also refusing to consider alternative solutions.
