In the same spirit as DL deleting their award chart, really.
That would make sense for why they combined the saver and standard coach award column, but why does that explain why the calendar won't show dates with nonstop availability like it did on the legacy CO site?

How does UA forcing me to click through dozens of dates to find nonstop saver award space benefit anyone?

Seems to just be sheer incompetence.
