treasure card question

Why do treasure cards not stack fully? What I mean by that is this, I have a wizard, with the following treasure cards (each line is a new slot):

3 Pixie 450 self only
1 pixie 450 self only

1 Keeper of the Flame
6 keeper of the Flame

1 30% balance blade
1 30% balance blade
1 30% balance blade

1 helping hands 60+540
1 helping hands 60+540

4 Availing hands 85+870
9 Availing hands 85+870

Why dont they stack? The ONLY difference I can see is the symbol on the cards which designate which pack they came from. Wouldn't it be easier for keeping track of cards if they did this:

4 Pixie 450 self only
7 keeper of the Flame
3 30% balance blade
2 helping hands 60+540
13 Availing hands 85+870

it would take up half as many slots and keep things much more organized. I'm only talking about treasure cards with the exact same value and pip cost

I assume you're talking about TCs that are NOT installed in your deck. I've seen that same thing and have always wondered why they act the way they do. In some cases it's obvious, but in others, not so much. I can only guess that perhaps it's a function of from where or whom the card came. As an experiment you could take them to the bazaar and compare their sale prices. I have noticed that some cards that seem identical also have different sale prices. I've never considered it a huge problem but you're correct in that it would tidy things up a bit if likes stacked with likes.

I would imagine that the sale prices would be different depending on the pack they were from, based off of rarity in that specific pack. As for the bazaar, here's the thing. price is based off of availability, and if I try to sell a card to the bazaar, and there's only ONE from the same pack, the price will be higher than the same card from another pack where they bazaar has 50 of them

Yeah, in SOME cases, the values they add or take away are different. So, for example, a +25% hex and +30% hex should NOT stack, but 16 +25% hexes SHOULD stack (but don't depending on where you got them from). I can't imagine this would be too hard to code, but Ive never coded anything like W101, so Im talking from an inexperienced POV
