PremiumIt has ability that triggers on draw that 1)destroys the card upon draw 2)summons nerubian 3)trigger a draw.
Additional cases where that's obvious:
-if you draw with 10 cards into ambush it gets destroyed and you don't draw another
-if you draw it with chromaggus on board you get a copy of the card that does nothing

Highlander decks will work, but I wonder if reno won't do well for cycle decks as well. Cycle rogue for example, might become a thing. You set it up and you can cycle your deck by 9/10 and perhaps gang up reno. There will be a skill requirement (read: pen&paper) for those though, but that's cool.
I did a rough calculation, if you have 2 pairs of cards, there is only a 27% chance to trigger Reno combo with 15 cards undrawn, halving the value of Reno. You need to draw 4 more cards to get the 50% probability again.
Or you can think of it in another way: if you have 1 pair of cards, then Reno's battlecry becomes a 2-card combo. If you have 2 pairs, then it's a 3-pieces combo.
I took drawing Reno into consideration. Common sense tells that you have 50% chance to draw Reno, and half of the time you cannot use him because either pair has a 25% chance to fail you. So 25%+ is proper.
No, my arguments aren't contradictory, the problem is you don't seem to understand them. I'm only arguing the correct way to calculate when, on average, you can expect to play Reno. Nothing else.
The point with Alexstrasza seem to have been completely lost on you, so I'll try to make it clearer. When trying to decide whether or not to play Alexstrasza in your deck, you need to consider if you need any other heal (for instance) if you're planning on sometimes using it defensively. When you can expect to draw it, depends on your draw engine. If the draw engine isn't strong enough, and you don't expect to be able to stall the game with no heal until drawn, you may not want to play it or you might add stall, AoE, heal or draw to the deck. Or you might decide that it doesn't fit at all.
This is the point of my argument about Reno. There's a huge difference in expecting to be able to play him on turn 7 or turn 11. In the case of the latter, you might not want to play the card at all. What you are, in effect, suggesting is that it doesn't matter if you can expect to play the card on turn 11, because the effect is able to go off on turn 7.
Do you see the flaw in your logic now?
