I dunno, at least with Stellaris it seems like they've followed the model of having an idea for a DLC, making the engine changes to support it in the base, and then the content in the DLC, so even if you don't buy the DLC you see improvements and changes from the iteration.
If selling DLC of dolphin men is how they want to fund continued development on a game, I don't exactly find that the most objectionable.
With HoI4 with every DLC they bring out even when you don't buy it you get a DLC light.
Yeah, it's been kinda like that with Stellaris. I'd be upset if I felt like they didn't deliver me a full game,and then wanted to sell me what they left out, but that's not the feeling I get.
