I think I read in another thread that you're worried about diluting the pool. Well diluting the pool is nowhere near as bad as never having a chance in the first place. "Diluting the pool" seems like it should be the default option until you come up with something you like better. "Leaving characters out" seems like the worst solution (other than being the simplest). Am I understanding all this correctly or did I miss something here?

I don't like that they are with-holding them from the Token Pool, however, I do feel like it's the best choice for the game's economy and progression, until they decide on a final alternative.

I acknowledge some people might like them, but many... many.. of us find them to be headache-inducing at best, and divorce-inducing at worst, when playing next to a sleeping partner (apparently ). Hell, I don't even look at the loading screen - I just wait what I feel is an adequate amount of time to get rid of the 'start up flash' and be able to tap into the game. Cascades became a thing of terror, where I couldn't even watch the matches getting made, because of all the flashes that go off. I eventually dl'd Lux to dim my phone further than it ordinarily could, just for this game, but it's still crazy how awful those constant flashes are. Posts have been made in Suggestions, General, etc... but nothing ever gets acknowledged. An option to turn 'being blinded' off would be great.

I don't like that they are with-holding them from the Token Pool, however, I do feel like it's the best choice for the game's economy and progression, until they decide on a final alternative. This doesn't make sense to me, because that's a weird way to think about how random chance would work in this situation. What I would assume is that a standard token (for example) would be something like: 70% chance for a 1*, 25% chance for a 2*, 4.9% chance for a 3*, .1% chance for a 4*. Within that 25% chance for a 2* character, you then have an equal chance to get any 2* character. (Same with all the other groups.) In other words: there are 2 rolls; one to see what level you get, and another to see what character you get in that level. It doesn't matter how many 2* characters there are, because you have a 25% chance to get one. Your example is like saying there is a flat % rate for each character, which is a very odd way to do it. In fact that's a terrible way to do it, because you'd obviously run into the problem of having too many characters. Either way, withholding characters from the pool isn't a bad thing. I think it'd be extremely confusing to anyone new to even imagine they would do it that way.
