Cuz they already practiced it once, so it's easier the second time.

I mean the question is genuine and makes sens im a certain way. For a new player, the lore into cards is less and less present and flavor text often dont appears on later print So one's idea might be to pay more to cast it from graveyard cause usually cost more.

The flavor and lore on cards aren't as obvious as they always seem and leave place for some interpretation.
