I mean, I guess they could go temporarily insane and do it, but that seems unlikely.
Why do you use the plural form? Only one format restricts cards, Vintage. And the only reason that works out is because there are so many broken cards that are restricted that everyone's guaranteed to draw several. No other format restricts cards, unless you count EDH/Commander, which doesn't really count because everything is restricted there, save basic lands.

1. (Ravnica Allegiance): You can't keep a good esper control deck down... Or Wilderness Reclamation... or Gates...
2. (War of the Spark): Guys, I know what we need! We need a cycle of really idiotic flavor text victory cards! Jace's Triumph...
3. (War of the Spark): Lets make the format with control have even more control!
Honestly it didn't take long for people to scream foul at Copter, Emrakul, Siege Rhino, Gary, Thragtusk, etc. It took another month for people to cry about Marvel, Gideon, and Coco though, but nothing in Standard looks to be the same strength as them.
