It doesn't matter how it worked in the second game but rather how would it fit PvZ2? Why choose the easy way when you can challenge yourself? Because everybody wants Umbrella Leaf.....The needs of the many outweigh the needs of the few.

Also, Octos and Wizards are not the "challenging yet fun" type to deal with. Those are the "nuisance and needs to die immediately" type zombies in large numbers. There's no glory in purposefully challenging yourself when there can be an easy alternative.
