Simple. People are idiots.
As if it weren't bad enough that not everyone has access to the test server, 90% of the people there are abusing 2k plat from new acc to buy the 10m vanity and then proceed to spam anyone with mythic/arcane gear that they'll buy their stuff for 99m. This isn't a playground to show off gold you haven't earned (and never will, as that kind of behavior shows); it exists to test the new maps and provide feedback.
I'd suggest that next time around, trades should be unavailable and the gold cap is lowered to just 50k.
