One of the cardinal rules of storytelling Is, don't add what you don't need and throw out what's unnecessary. When you have something that's already accomplishing a particular story purpose, it's the mark of bad writing to then add another element that's accomplishing the same thing. It's wasteful writing. Doing that would be bad writing, in addition, it would needlessly anger the fanbase.
I get where you're coming form, but its just more motivation. Its not like adding another giant plot point that just goes down to the same thing. Its just saying instead of "He broke our beys, lets get him back" its "He broke our beys and our teachers". The bey breaking of someone that's helped you and you look up too holds a lot more weight than your bey just breaking.

Indeed, I couldn't care less about Hikaru and Hyuga. They might as well just fall off a cliff or something. I came here for the legends.
Yeah yeah yeah whatever, but in the end of the day this show is about the main characters. Just cause you like the legends doesn't mean its illegal for their bey to break. Things in the show push the main characters further. This could hypothetically be one of the things.
