A sorcerer is more than a "1 trick pony".  He/she is a spell caster that can channel magic from within. Your vision will further confine the class, not expand its potential. Imagine stating based on your Wizard school, you only can know spells from that school. Or creatures have advantage on saves on spells cast by you from a different school of magicRemoving Metamagic will leave the class without anything but it's archetype, further confining the Sorcerer to its archetype. It's not a monopoly, but class feature. Another class may have the same or simply liar feature but gained at a later level or more limited.  Based on your rationale of monopolizing abilities, which make classes unique, lets make all abilities available to every class. A fighter having rage. Ranger getting sneak attack. Etc.If you want a Wizard with Metamagic, you can homebrew one and use it as an archetype. At each level of archetype feature, it gains 1 metamagic. And gains 1/2 amount of SP compared to sorcerer</blockquote>
