Keeping the confirmation is for your protection. Properties have been known to make changes before you arrive and if you count on the web to have the correct data, you may be surprised. Some have reported noticing a change and the email was the only way to show what it was at time of booking. They should honor the rate at time of booking, but a new FDC may not have permission to override the system. It's your call, of course.
