You're confusing restrictions for Unique cards and Prime Runners. A
Unique designation means a given player may only have one in their
deck. Prime Runners may only be one in play, amongst all the players,
at any given time.

Only Riggers. RBT (pg 33) "Drone cards may only be used by Riggers" as
opposed to (pg 34) "Spirit cards may only be used by Shamans and other
Runners with the Conjure skill."

'Cause the DLOH's want it that way?

It's there to stay. One recent run against the corp fragged up and now
they're on a paranoid alert.
