Agreed 100% - it's just silly at this point. It's rare for me to book close-in (even for business-oriented travel really) so it's a significant devaluation to the program when I can't reliably use it for January and possibly even into February travel.
At one of the properties I was waiting on for FHR, I wound up negotiating a rate and benefits directly with the sales department after e-mailing the GM. Now that I've gone to the trouble of establishing a separate relationship with this specific property, I will likely no longer use FHR to book there. Recommend others do the same rather than wait on FHR.
