As far as marking sleeves, I don't believe that Cactus should be mandating such a thing, as that more or less ruins sleeves in the long run, particularly when you switch decks.
Really? All you need are some yard-sale-style circle stickers, tape, or even the cactus produced stickers mentioned earlier. You just stick it to the outside-front of the sleeve and you're good to go with little cost and no ruining of sleeves. It's certainly no more of a hardship or a financial burden than cactus requiring sleeves at tournaments in the first place...
And if we really like MJB's idea we can just include the sticker sheets as a resource for tournament hosts and the costs of printing the sheets can be added to the tournament costs. That way the stickers can be applied at the tournament before deck check-in and no one is even really inconvenienced.

Just the ones that are used the most oftenThat's still pretty unfeasible at this point.Agreed. That would make us have to make a distinction of what older cards are "usable" and what cards are not. It would require us to make the largest single set ever made, which also means no new cards. It would have us reprint existing versions of cards instead of giving them updates and a facelift. It would also make existing copies unusable (or the project is meaningless if old copies still get used), which we don't want regardless. Reprinting the existing cards is not an option.As far as marking sleeves, I don't believe that Cactus should be mandating such a thing, as that more or less ruins sleeves in the long run, particularly when you switch decks. People who play with someone who needs the visual reminders could certainly adjust how they present their cards to be inclusive, but I'm not sure that Cactus has a way to force it feasibly across the board.
