That is because it is. Basically cutting pieces off the pre-gen characters in order to fill out the Custom characters action.

But I've already probed the game's fanbase. People prefer the more expansive pre-generated characters.

As opposed to Less expansive but more customizable player built characters... even in tandem.

I even was outright told, by a developer, if you play Custom characters you are missing out on a large part of the game's story and replayability... Even if you play with other types of custom characters.

Though how much the game diminishes the amount of impact your character has if you play Custom is to be seen. Indeed Pre-gen characters get a lot more dialog options and solutions to problems then Aspiration Tags do AND the developers also said the game adjusts to the tags you pick quite nicely. As well pre-gen character's tag sets seem to work together a lot more nicely then two random ones you pick.
-One of the reasons why I wanted more confirmation from players. I cannot confirm this definitively.

So in conclusion it is a shame for us. Yet it is the more popular choice.
