I rather see a "fun in the xxx" style set or converted/updated Education people set compared to the random CMF, but that's just me.

It's the system of CMF that irks me, not the content.

In the end it's all about feeling or reselling extras, or buying overpriced via some 3rd party seller.

This has been noted before by others elsewhere in the past, but the blind bag model is sort of a "necessary evil" if Lego is going to sell individual minifigures, as there are many archetypes that otherwise couldn't be viably possible without it.
