This would be very sad if true. In the past I have always found them to be very liberal on award changes after schedule change - literally any time/routing same day, which leads to an optimal award strategy of "book the cheapest award ticket that day and wait for a schedule change to get the flight you want". I have never had much luck with that on cash tickets though.
