I looked but couldnt find the response. And that is irritating because my recollection is the opposite of yours. I recall something like "it is under consideration and we hope to announce something in the not too distant future." Or I could be dead wrong. But I do remember thinking "be careful what you ask for because you just might get it" after reading Ben's response. Meaning that while I see the sense of this from AC's perspective, I think that except for a vocal few, almost no current elite (inc. SE) would like this in practice. UA's changes seem to have garnered universal condemnation. Even though spend doesnt alter status level, it only impacts their equivalent of AQM (as a multiplier). If I understand what they did correctly.
