So it goes from either using a FNC or 15k points to costing 23k points just in that example which is more than a 50% cost increase within that one month period and no more Cat 1-4 FNC can be used.
That's a pretty harsh example, but we all knew that overall this move to Peak/Off-peak would be a devaluation. For people who can pick and chose the dates of their stays their might be a few pleasant surprises, but those who like to save their points for summer family vacations are not likely to be too happy. Still, as you and others have posted, it is still better than full dynamic award pricing.
