Why is early eyeball frog banned if this is celebrating the discovery of eyeball frog early?

<maxx> banning early eyeball makes the playing field even but it's kind of like
<maxx> the whole reason we have a king zora day
<maxx> haha
<mzxrules> that's why I considered banning defrosting King Zora
<mzxrules> my rationalization is to celebrate the king's generosity
