Except that your principle is demonstrably no the case. We have seen the SC fall drastically, the amount paid to plays fall hugely, The percentage of money paid to players has fallen dramatically and the amount invested in these other areas hasn't risen by the same levels.
You are hiding behind a false dichotomy that clearly isn't true. Your argument that money spent on players is money that would otherwise be spent on these great things you and the other guardians of the games virtue want it spending on misses a third option. The option that is actually happening. That money that would have been spent on players isn't spent at all
