Esper Blink is full of efficient interaction (Solitude, Orcish Bowmasters, Thoughtseize, Prismatic Ending) so Thoughtseize lets us proactively strip their removal or a key blink piece like Phelia, Exuberant Shepherd before they can leverage it against our Phoenixes. Memory's Journey can shuffle back key cards like Life from the Loam or Creeping Chill if they try to strand our graveyard resources with something like Rest in Peace-adjacent effects, though none of their listed cards exile our yard directly, so treat it as a flexible one-of. Burning Inquiry is risky against a deck full of cheap efficient interaction that punishes randomly discarding our good cards, so we trim it down. Conflagrate is cut since Overlord of the Balemurk and Atraxa, Grand Unifier are too big to profitably burn out with a discard-fueled X spell in this slower matchup.
