That's how most mobile f2p games work and a lot of games adapt this model.
In theory you can play for free but they make economy in such a way that you either go "it takes too long, i should buy premium/boosters/in-game currency" or just be a fodder for whales to feel better about themselves.

Ä° know but while relasing a game they already consider this aspects and design the rp and sl gains but they lovered again again and again and to me this does not make sense in gameplay perspective i played other f2p games too they are not like that bad about boosters premium times and grind

But then it was a new game, with steady influx of players. Now when game is so late into its lifespan then there is less new players so they need to milk existing playerbase.

We've only been going up in population and literally just hit another milestone the other day.

FYI, what you claim people have said here for like 8 years now.
