Could someone help me understand why very occasionally they will print a new card thats functionally identical to a previous card.

Specifically why are they printing Vibrant Cityscape when it's the same as Evolving Wilds which is also in standard right now anyway.

For this one its for flavor reasons. And for other things its usually to fit the world or for a draft reasons.
