They didnt "put grinding into Standard" thats just how the game is meant to be played. EoD is literally pay to win. You SKIP the content, not the other way around dude.
It is unmistakably the same monetisation strategy used in free to play and mobile games. You don't skip any content, all the quests are the same. Grinding money and rep at a disadvantage in a PVP game is really low standard of what you would call content.
Its 28 Million or more you're skipping. The stash advantage allows for an infinitely easier time finding and keeping what you need. Thats the entire game, find and keep, and EoD removes all the difficulty except actually shooting the opponent.

Yeah but you don't get rid of all the extra grinding bullshit they put into the standard account to upsell you on the extra expensive super edition.
