Seems about as advisable as putting "Destroy all Dinosaurs." into Ixalan. You have a surprising amount of hate cards for the artifact theme you supposedly want to encourage. Strong plentiful hate cards against a flagship theme usually is a bad idea.
I point at Shatterstorm in Antiquities - which set had a heck of a lot of artifact hate, in retrospect.
Still, theme-hosers are used a lot more sparingly nowadays than they were then. And are usually slightly more subtle. And in the next set when they realise "Ooops" :)
The other form of hoser is something that is underpowered unless the meta swings overly far towards the thing it is hosing.
Colossus of Sardia from Antiquities is still good to go!
