So yea, can we have travel insurance go back to the old opt-in method? (Or am I imagining things?)
Every time I've made an international booking I've had the insurance added and have had to remove it. I admit I find it annoying but have avoided, so far, paying it by accident.

Are you talking about domestic bookings? I have noticed with mine because the cost suddenly goes up. But I'd certainly prefer to 'opt-in' rather than 'opt-out'.

And certainly, guys, if you're working at double speed to get a GAS bargain it would be extremely irritating, not to say dangerously expensive!
