Regulating frequent flyer programs will just in turn make it worse for consumers.
Your conclusion assumes certain outcomes about regulation and the consequences of regulation which are anything but certain unless you know the exact nature of the regulation that gets implemented.

Expanded disclosure requirements are a form of regulation that may be a very useful thing for consumers. That is unless you believe that a better informed consumer is bad for capitalism.
