The 1.8.0 newsletter crown is unused by the AI and only available in the barbershop because it can cause desync issues in MP because it requires all players to be subbed to the newsletter to have it. Clearly, withholding content from the player base because you want people to sub to the newsletter is a pretty bad idea. There must be more elegant solutions to this such as unlocking this for everyone without needing the newsletter subscription because it causes issues for MP otherwise.
#Plock Diadem should be unlocked for everyone and have their triggers restored

There's a newsletter? Since when? And why would they add content locked behind that anyway?
Simple answer is that they want more people to follow it. It's been a thing since before release of CK3.
