This is something else that came to my mind just now. I think I may have scratched the surface of just how Wild Magic has been corrupted. Still, that may not be the correct term right now.

The ecosystem itself may have been altered with a World Item in the past rather than simply introducing Rank Magic to the New World, with the population which had already existed before such change retaining their powers and skills. Those born from the change onwards would be stuck with Rank Magic as their magic channeling technique while beings like the Dargon Lords of old retain their Wild Magic affinity and can pass down such traits but with limited control (as in the case of the Draconic Empress). The Wild Magic went into a steep decline during the Eight Greed Kings' era probably isn't because they changed the system further but rather those with Wild Magic traits were killed and thus cannot pass Wild Magic to the descendants.
