The Super Dragon Balls Never Having Been Created

If the Super Dragon Balls were never made and the original lore behind the Namekians and their very own versions of the Dragon Balls had been kept around and never changed, how much would this have changed the Dragon Ball Super Manga and Anime?

If you removed the Super Dragon Balls from a show literally called "Dragon Ball: Super", you'd obviously end up with a very different show.

Off the top of my head:

- The U6 Tournament arc wouldn't exist, since that tournament was made over possession of the Super Dragon Balls;
- The Future Trunks arc wouldn't exist, since Zamasu was able to attain Goku's body and Immortality (which he needed for his plan) via the Super Dragon Balls;
- The ToP arc wouldn't exist, since Zeno got the idea of a multiversal tournament from watching the U6 Tournament.

So Yeah, if you took the Super out of Dragon Ball: Super, you'd end up with a very different and shorter show.

Goku and Vegeta would probably have just been training with Whis until Moro eventually broke out of prison and the galactic patrol comes to get boo. Who knows how that would have all went down (probably a lot worse unless for whatever reason they attack Moro as super saiyan blue straight away)
