I think the switch to sing large sets instead of blocks plays a lot into the failure to really dive into the stories of the planes. Can't do something like the Tarkir block with a single set and not a series of three that are narratively connected and sequential.

They have done "blocks" though like with the three Ravnica sets in a row, the two Innistrad sets, and the two Phyrexia sets. They might feel pressured to plane hop more outside of the block structure though.
