Make standard/Hardcore perminent leagues harder then timed leagues..

I have an interesting idea. What if the Leagues our characters end up in are actually harder then the fresh ones?

So when the league ends and our characters transfer we have an added challenge if we want to play them. I feel this would be a great currency sink for hardcore mode. I also feel that it would add even more value to good items in softcore.

There is no reason for a person new to Poe to start in these old leagues anyways. Their time is much less rewarded since good gear is already plentiful. It makes it so you have to rely on orb drops in order to buy anything, Which is fine but at least in fresh leagues it is still exciting iding gear.
