Besides keeping track of "milestones" aka reaching a stupid big number, why do people care about legacy numbering so much?
So I checked out both Wonder Woman and Flash at the start of Rebirth and I thought they were both pretty bad. Have they changed much since?
“To the future or to the past. To a time when thought is free, when men are different from one another and do not live alone - to a time when truth exists and what is done cannot be undone: from the age of uniformity, from the age of solitude, from the age of Big Brother, from the age of doublethink - greetings!" - Winston Smith
Wonder Woman has changed creative team multiple times, so yes. Having not read it myself though, I can't tell you if that's for better or worse. Flash still has the same writer, so if you didn't like it at the start, you won't like it now.

Less enticing when there are 7 different number 1s to choose from.
I've read comics all my life, but I have to do a thorough Google search when I want to buy a Marvel/DC series in TPB. "Collects issues #7-12" is useless information if there are 2/3 other books that also collect completely different #7-12.
If someone wants to read the first appearance of Punisher - Amazing Spider-Man #129, first Venom - Amazing Spider-Man #300. Simple. Constant renumbering makes seeking out specific issues, specific stories, specific characters more convoluted. It's a bad idea, especially in the digital marketplace.
It needs to say "collects issues #7-12 (2018)" or something similar. If it doesn't, that's bad editing. Even that's not good enough sometimes. When Secret Wars caused all Marvel books to get a new #1, that included a few books that had only launched six months earlier. The result is that Squirrel Girl's first trade is disambiguated with (2015A) and later ones are labelled as collecting comics from (2015B).

With 5G coming, I wonder if DC will keep this going or not. I'm guessing no, so this is just something to appease fans while they already plan the relaunch.
