FWIW, I think these changes are a major (but not unexpected) devaluation. As someone who only redeems his miles for premium international awards or the occasional international upgrade, this is a significant devaluation of my miles. The 500-mile minimum repeal? Perhaps 2K EQMs---not enough to notice, let alone be thankful for in relation to the other changes.
I was going to comment that at least the award levels remained the same at 200 Y, 300 C, and 400 F. You can find them at the bottom of this page.
