Really? Rewarding cost reduction? Shouldn't that be reward enough?

Sure, why not? Shouldn't you be rewarded for doing things right? :-)
This also rewards casting things like Lingering Souls whose flashback cost is less than their normal cost.

Goes completely bonkers with Animar, Soul of Elements. At least this can't go in his Commander deck. Pretty scary also in a Heartless Summoning deck, or with Stone Calendar or Bronze Calendar.

(And now I have to tell you about the time I was playing a game with Bronze Calendar when I got summoned to go and have lunch with 40 other people. I kept to the Calendar's restriction all through lunch time without triggering the sacrifice for when the game eventually resumed. Most amusingly, none of the people I had lunch with realised I was doing anything out of the ordinary...)

There are several other universal cost reducers, of which the funniest is probably Cheap Ass.

Obviously the most thematic would be Grand Arbiter Augustin IV.

This is pretty nuts with Omniscience, but I don't think that's the fault of this card.

Yeah, I think omniscience is supposed to have broken combos :)
