I hear you. Like I mentioned, sometimes companies don't listen to what we want and what would work the best. They look at the bottom line and hope they pull some easy profit out of products. If they went with other brass like you mentioned it would be more expensive for sure to develop.
I shoot .22 TCM and boy that round is a dragon too. I like both the speedsters and the blockbusters. Don't shoot my median calibers as much anymore. I roll with the .204 Ruger, .17 HH, .460 Smith, .450 BM, .300 BLK, etc. The outer spectrums are what I use more recently. Doing more suppressed stuff so the big bores moving slow are fun.
