So many cards seem to have a condition determined by base stats, but why are there no cards with a condition determined off of current stats?

For example: Stephan's Q.
"Your cards in hand with 7 or more base energy"

Why not "your cards in hand with 7 or more energy"

This thought also expands into base power, why not any cards that read like "your opponents cards with 150 or more power....blah blah blah"

The main reason for this is effect order. Each player sees their effects activate before their opponent’s.
So for example you have a card that says “your cards with 50+ power gain +22” and a card with 50 power, but your opponent plays a card that says “your opponent’s cards lose 8”. To you your +22 will activate before their -8, but to them their -8 will happen first and then your card is under 50 and shouldn’t get the +22

they didn't change the wording, whereas jungfrau and guivre both say "at the start of the turn"
