What they could do is show the important distinction between the uses of IAP with 2 categories:

- Games where each purchase can only be made once: Most games where purchases are used to add extra content

- Games where the same IAP can be made multiple times: Spammy games with consumable purchases

The two categories can have text indicating they include expansions (DLC) or that they contain consumable purchases (pay-to-win).



Honestly, i think calling them consumable is white-washing it. They're cheats in a fanciful disguise.
