That's not how the categories work though. Think of the opposite:
If they suddenly introduced 8 new categories, making them go from 1-15. Surely you wouldn't say that "today's category 8 will be valid for future category 8, i don't see what the problem is. Clean and simple, no remapping" if all hotels move up categories to adjust for the new structure. People would be VERY unhappy about that.
