Hey new folks!

I'm Remi. I compose, play banjo and I'm currently putting together a small EP of tracks written for an obscure game project! Been attending and charting for VGM Jazz jams as well

I also play plenty of Magic: the Gathering and am learning Ori BF Randos

Nice to meet ya!

Shivam puts my feelings way more eloquently. It's a foundational restriction of the format.

And, to use another foundational Magic rule that might sound more harsh:

"Can't beats Can"

Here, chew on this.

Under the proposed change to hybrid mana in EDH, this deck would be considered mono-green. - Commander (Rhys the Redeemed)

A deck created using Moxfield.

All format restrictions are arbitrary, but the Color Identity rule is a central pillar of Commander and what gives it its identity, just as much as having a critter in the command zone.

There probably aren't any hybrid cards that would break anything, but it errodes something foundational.

It's the next stop on "Oh, this is in a deck that can't produce its colors, so why can't I play it?" CID considers all mana symbols on the card, regardless of how you can pay for it.

Bargain as a BUG card has business being in a monoW or monoR or WR deck, even if it could be cast for 6

Sure, and commander has color identity as a deck building restriction for a reason as well. Just because you can cast it without white mana doesn't change that it's both a White and Red card. Why carve out an exception for Hybrid and not Phyrexian? What about Rakshasa's Bargain in MonoW?
