You would have to pay L3 judges more than $1,000 to actually compensate them at even a minimum wage level for doing what is in all real respects a job.

They stopped making them the key compensation, so you don't automatically get them for doing GPs anymore.

Judge Foils are still given for participation in some Judge conferences, and as recognition in the exemplar program. It's a weird and silly system.

No, they just changed a bunch of them to some sort of exemplar program where you have to get a pat on the back from a higher level judge to get certain foils.

You have to get a pat on the back from several Judges of L2+ which is amusing considering for example there is only one single L2 in all of West Virginia, I think there are entire countries without L2's lmao

Not as the rules are currently defined, but in principle WotC could print a card with devotion to colourless given the new symbol. Nykthos says "choose a colour", and by definition colourless is not a colour, so it doesn't work.

It's real cards (well as real as MTGO objects are) for the price of a phantom draft. They likely didn't consider it all that likely some of these formats would fire - there's no financial reason for them to not let you have Swiss drafts.
