The levener is baking powder and baking soda. Rhese are cheap ingredients a container of each can last years.
Those mixes are easy to replicate. If the mix changing prevents them from making it from scratch they were never a baker. Anymore than making me making a Mac and cheeses makes me a chef because I added some sliced cheddar.
These mixes were created for convenience. They did not create the concepts behind the end product. They are made with magical difficult to source ingredients.
Thank you

It's fine, they can keep complaining when the argument should be about price gouging
