If you are a completionist then you are buying every new version regardless of cost. If you are not then just accept that you won't have every single variation without buying the new versions, and move on. Life is a lot less stressful if you are the latter.
I guess I'm a completionist... but in reverse. I JUST STARTED playing KoT in 2017 (so I'm a noob), so I definitely started after the new 2nd edition had released... but doing the research and finding out about the changes between 1st and 2nd editions... I decided to buy the 2nd edition off Amazon as my "base" game, then go back on E-Bay, buy a used 1st edition and steal Cyber Bunny and Kraken (I then donated the slightly-gutted 1st Edition to a family friend family to get them hooked)... so now I have the 2nd edition with the addition 1st edition monsters.
Oddly enough, Iello did not force me to do this... if anything, I kinda thought it was exciting to get "bonus" monsters not everyone would have (people who only own one edition or the other wont have as many monsters as I do!). Instead of complaining, I kinda look at it as an option to go all uber.
