Real Founder, or not?

[Astrocat]

Ok, so, apparently, we call the items from store ''Founders'' when they're not truly Founders. I don't get the point of this, if we ''have to buy them fast before they go away'' or ''prove you have been there since the beginning of the game with these Founders'' when you read this:

Like all items in Arcane Legends, they will be tradeable and we imagine there will be a pretty big secondary market for these items on the Consignment Shop.

What is the point? Why not make REAL Founders?
