With two shovel upgrades, you've gotten back 250 sun but spent 500, so you've overall lost 250 sun by doing that.

With Escape Root, if it turns a plant into a free seed packet for that plant, the only sun you'll lose is however much Escape Root costs. Say it costs 50 sun, and you relocate a Winter Melon, you've lost 50 sun instead of 250. Hmm, maybe I misinterpreted the idea. So basically whatever plant costs more or equal than Escape Root will get benefitted but obviously something that costs lower or zero sun won't (just like Intensive Carrot). Thinking back, that is a good plant to have.

Although, if Escape Root does turn out as such, PopCap will definitely butcher it in order to make it "balanced". However, some people will still find joy in that.
