There are other examples as well. So, there is definitely a differentiation, maybe, not based on a particular season but there are some good deals for standard rooms.
That is correct.
Standard rooms are priced pegged to the actual $ amount (with 0.005 pt/$ ratio) until the maximum (which is the old high season maximal).
So if the standard room is cheap, it would cost less points.
If the standard room is expensive, it would cost more points and the price will be capped at the old high season maximum.
In other words:
If Price in $ / 0.005 < Max high season then Price in Points = Price in $ / 0.005, else Price in Points = Max high Season
