They could be making the mistake of thinking they are losing revenue by allowing the credit to be purchased at a discount, when in reality, it spurs a lot of interest an incremental revenue that will be wiped out without the discounts. They'll see the true impact soon enough if they continue to vacuum much longer. I'm still betting that discounts will resume late this spring or early summer, but we'll see.
