What if MLB told topps they could no longer produce bowman products the way we know?

The year is 2025. Due to years of complaints and confusion from collectors worldwide, MLB now forbids topps from producing cards of players depicted in their major league uniforms until they actually play in a MLB game. The rookie card rule is now solidified with no more gray area.

Topps is still allowed to produce bowman products, but only if the players are depicted in plain clothes or their minor league uniforms. Now imagine how this changes your collecting landscape (I know, making BO board members think. I will lose about 95% of you), if at all.

Do you still prospect/buy bowman? Do you switch over to rookie logo cards, and if so, what brands become the most popular and/or most expensive?
