Color palletes have been platinum exclusive from day one though, save for a few free special releases later, and idle animations are still free to Warframes, you just have to buy them if you're using an animation set from another Warframe.

Emotes right now are pretty much free, so they're not going to suddenly make emotes not free. I can imagine them making plat-only emotes in the future, but not suddenly making all emotes plat-only, as the OP seems to imply.
