I dont see the F2P model as something ideal for competitive magic. I see MTGA catering to a casual crowd and MTGO, after its been remade, taking over.
Sounds like a lot of work requested for WotC to be put into an old software just to support Formats WotC knowingly doesnt care about and a shady secondary market they gain nothing from.

From a business perspective, there is next to no point putting work into MTGO after MTGA has been established. Judging from the financial development in MTGO in the last 3 weeks, I dont think people have much faith for MTGOs future and slowly cashing out as prices and user numbers decline.
