Do we really need a new hyper advanced civilization in every expansion now?

[Sheriyana]

ARR and HW had Allag
SB introduced Omega
ShB had Ronka and the Ancients
EW had the Ancients again, moon bunnies and the Omicrons
DT has the Alexandrians

Do we really need a new one every damn expansion now? It feels like so lazy and uninspired. I know an ancient hyper advanced civilization is a compelling idea, one of the reasons that kept ARR interesting and Mass Effect for example but it just feels a bit much at this point.

Oh, and Garlemald is one too, completely forgot about that one!
