In other words, encouraging more business from the lower end [i.e. less frequent] of the market.
Whilst I would agree with this I would point out that it was only recently they removed Open Doors for Golds for example. Personally I'm hoping we might see some new benefits to make up for this (or even the restoration of Open Doors but I'm not hopeful on that one).
