When we win money, we break this scheme. In the same way it is broken by theft, robbery, or taxes. If money is obtained for nothing, it loses its value.
I don't get it. Winning money from gambling has its value. We are on a platform that gave us a chance to win cash; it's been the system ever since you have invested money, time, and effort. Money won from gambling has its value.

It would be much better to play for something else. For example, for points.
How changing the established mode any better, if it ain't broken, why change it

Cryptocurrency actually fits this quite well too. Especially coins that are given away in airdrops, or those that are easy to mine. Or, really, any coin that only pretends to have value.
Cryptocurrency has value like money, and it's long been established that when you deposit crypto, you'll get crypto and real money, so this isn't new.
