It suddnely devalues the miles by 50%. Have others noticed the same?

Also: redemption charts are very weird. Delhi to Cairo costs you 35K miles (on EY flight) and Amman to Delhi back costs you 46K miles despite it being closer and both flights are on EY and both are through AUH.
its been more than a year since these changes took place....i believe jet even sent an email to all members informing them about the changes....while the number of miles required went up for most international sectors, the domestic sectors mostly saw a reduction in the number of miles needed per flight....jet also got rid of yq which was a welcome change....
