These are great QOL changes. I wonder why they waited for the DLC to release them instead of doing it with the colluseum update.

Probably added after that update.

The new items stuff in particular seems like QoL considerations for "we just added a hundred items to the game for players coming back to it after months away."

Yeah. And consider the verification process games have to go through on consoles, probably easier to do it all in one big update.
