Why do so many in the app call providing additional cards a "tip"?

If I recall correctly, isn't that instead smart trading? Why get entangled in this idea of "tips" when you could instead pride yourself as being a thoughtful, savvy trader?

Presenting a "tip" to a trader you never traded with before puts you in position of assuming things that you probably shouldn't be assuming. Maybe it's enshittification. Maybe it's just like flinging playing cards into a hat à la Brad Pitt in F1.

It just gets boring when a trader basically says, "See, I am a good trader because I offered you extra cards" which is so simple minded, especially because the "tips" almost always happen to be a red event card award from last year's Hyperspace, those dang blurry retro Arcade screenshot cards, or that ubiquitous Factions card. Don't no one ever look at a traders favorites, wish list, etc? I wish there was a FAQ in-app for traders.
