@12:30 About cards caring about names: There's the Brothers Yamazaki, which affects the legend rule; Hedron Alignment, that cares what zones the named cards are in; Approach of the Second Sun, that cares about whether a spell with that name was cast previously; Sengir Nosferatu, whose bat grabs him back from exile (cool flavor on that card); and maybe the weirdest ones -- the Conspiracy cards Noble Banneret, Paliano Vanguard, and Smuggler Captain which require you to note a name *during draft* for use later, which is bonkers! So I think they'd be fine playing around with that design space for Bag of Holding. Ironically, they probably just didn't have enough room.

Kaalia was first created as a commander for one of the first cycle of precon commander decks, brought an angel, demon or dragon into play whenever she attacked. I believe her lore was that she was a cleric who lost everything, and in her quest to pursue vengeance opened herself up to just ALL the most OP powers of the multiverse. Her precon deck probably costs stupid money on eBay now. Same cycle as the original bird wizard, I think.

Making the "Bag of Holding in a Bag of Holding" interaction work would just require an edit to the first ability on Bag of Holding: "Whenever you discard a card, exile that card from your graveyard. If a card named Bag of Holding is exiled this way, exile Bag of Holding." This would automatically strand everything you've already exiled because you have to use the third ability to get everything back, and that kind of checking for a card with a specific name is definitely something they've done before.
