I can just imagine that there were people at Southwest saying "let's make RR 2.0 simple, we like to make everything simple", and then someone with the above point in mind saying "no, if we make it that simple the IRS will tax the points".
It's because of the value of the RR 2.0 point changing depending on which column (BS,AT,WGA) you redeem from that it's still not a fixed value, and still not taxable.
Yes, very likely something like that happened, now that you mention it.
