Basically all this complaining here is about wanting to have your cake and eat it too, and AS may not wanna accommodate that any longer.

Not saying it's right or wrong on their part to do that, nor is it wrong on any customer's part to want the most points possible, all I'm saying is I can see the logic in AS giving you 3 paths to choose from and once you make that choice you can't have the benefits of the other 2 paths at the same time. Gotta make a decision one way or another.
