If they wanted any of these changes on an organizational level they could just make them.
It's probably because fans want their teams to get better. To the extent that some locations are disadvantaged (in my opinion to an increasing degree the more of these that are signed), it makes sense to try and consider some caps or restrictions around them.

Similar idea to why they try and balance a schedule or create the same type of rules for all teams; to try and create fairness for the league. Should Calgary never be able to compete because 30% of players don't want to play there? Further, if you're Edwards, you think he's just good with that?
