Or do you consider moving from 45K-50K to be "massive devaluation", in which case justabout every program has "massive devaluation" every year or two and the phrase becomes meaningless.
btw, saying "no way 40 will go to 35" is pretty meaningless when not one said it would.
Who said it was going to 90? My argument was the pts value is increasing which it certainly will. Just read the tea leaves. Who said 50% devaluation will happen? This is a strawman argument. And as outlined by Joshua below, this isn't a small inflation. And my argument was the increase in pts (40/45 to 50) is the
minimum. You haven't even taken into consideration peak times yet which are TBD.
