I think we absolutely have a Vivi problem. Not sure what they were thinking with 0: create mana ever being printed on a card, but it’s clear they (and all of us too) never saw the interaction with Agatha’s Soul Cauldron.
Cauldron will most likely eat a ban to pay for Vivi’s sins, but here we are. They won’t ban the card while it’s being actively sold and opened imo, and certainly not from the FF set.

@mike @MysticKetchup cauldron is the type of effect that ends up breaking things.
“Hey I know! Let’s make a 2/5 Shock that makes a Mox Sapphire and a Mox Ruby when it enters!”
“Hmm…not good enough.”
“Give it super-prowess? Wait…no, give it super-prowess and Marwyn the Nurturer’s ability, but for any noncreature spell!”
“Dammit Gavin, you’re a genius! But we should probably make it a 0/3 for balance.”
“And lower its mana cost to 1UR, to make sure it still sees play.”
