No, because they'll have to add some traditions that weren't there in the first place. And there was a good reason if they weren't there in the first place: the deck was better without them... that's where you hope that adding some copies of Keeper of Tradition is worth the effort.

Including a smattering of borderline cards in order to get permanent +2 bleed and +2 votes on (potentially) more than one vampire is a pretty sizeable pay off. If benefit > cost, the deck gets better. Legendary Vampire sees play in TWDA entries and that has a significant cost (2 pool), and requires a master card slot, and has a very limited window of play, and has a burn clause (not the easiest to burn because it's a vote, but the possibility is there), and is unique - and it's still a very good card, in the right deck. Including a couple of Fourth Tradition compares extremely favourably to that.

On the other hand, if the card makes decks worse, don't print it.
