You're hoping for an "internet uprise", spurring "consumer agencies" to whine about the fact they just emailed, posted on their website, updated their terms, and clearly quote new redemption prices that *may* even benefit the majority of users? Hey, let's get the government involved too... there has to be some wrongdoing here

If you had been choosing to pay at a particular property that had been charging, say 35K points, and it now drops to 30K, but at 30K you deem it a better value to pay with points, you are still benefiting versus your previous decision to pay in cash. No?
