I think the point is that you can't but the actual effects with the names in the VTT or attach the spell to the math.they are already beyond the limitations WotC wants to impose.
Apart from that I see no reason why I should be ok with them not having to compete by providing the better experience instead.
You can make a Mage token and have it shoot a missile of light.
Once you make a Mage token that can shoot a missile of light by either clicking a "Magic Missile" button, tagging the effect to deal 1d4+1 damage, or attaching a spell list to the token.... you are flirting with housing a video game engine.
