You're already indignantly objecting before you know how any changes will be executed. My guess is that two-factor authentication will be required for award redemptions, points transfers, profile changes, etc., but not for routine transactions. That's a pretty standard 2FA implementation for e-commerce.

Whatever the changes, I'll reserve judgment until after the facts are known.
