Did you notice how Hilton is not publicizing the devaluation on their web site, emails etc?

Pretty low key.

Not least since there aren't any "enhancements".
On the contrary, I received an e-mail on October 21, announcing the change in award levels. (I am subscribed to the HHonors Special Offers and Announcements e-mail list. Perhaps you aren't?)

Also, they DO have the change in reward levels on their website, under Rewards -> Hotels -> One Free Night.
