keep in mind that esports are still quite young. the top three games right now seem to be csgo, LoL, and dota 2. none of these games have lineages that go back more than twenty years. my guess is that the first twenty years of what became baseball, soccer, etc were even more unstable in their rulesets. i think your take is correct in the long run, but developers have a long road ahead of them before they are creating truly balanced games that can endure decades without change.
