I made a Starcraft bot that would make the entire population of South Korea cry but I won't release it.

They've talked it through with the Hearthstone devs before coming to that decision.
Someone else with less good intentions will make it now that they know it's possible.
This tool is only really relevant before turn 3 because it's pretty easy to tell what deck you are up against anyway. After that it offers no real advantage unless it can show remaining cards

Anyone who has the ability to make it would've already thought of it by now, it's not exactly a new math concept but it is a very difficult one.
Well, I get why Blizzard wouldn't want it out there, and I agree with them.
On the other hand knowing what your opponent most probably has doesn't really help since you can't know for sure, and even if you know it doesn't really change much.
The pros do this shit all the time in their head (and so do most other people), and it doesn't really matter if you "know" or not because of the randomness of card draw. You always have to play around meta cards, and as long as you don't know what's in their hand it doesn't really change anything.

Its not a huge deal either way.
When somebody spends 45 minutes talking about how it works, somebody will rebuild it if they think its valuable enough.

I don't like HS, but programming experts will find interesting tidbits in that video.
Easy reverse engineering...
It's pretty easy to guess decks unless you're at a low rank or playing casual where people test bad/weird decks
