That would have been nice indeed. For me, this is good news in that I can now use otherwise useless e-Rewards currency to occasionally top off my AA account between HHonors redemptions.
But for those who fly AA, I can see why this is bad news.
And the email the o.p. posted from e-Rewards reminds me of the letter I once got from my bank telling me they were closing my branch "in order to serve me better."
