While there is no doubt about how principled you are in that respect, Dean, I know for a lot of the more vocal people in this thread who have taken issue with the reallocation, we are not personally affected all that much by the change.
But that is not to say you alone are speaking out on principle. Skier_pete has mentioned repeatedly that the increase in studios, something he understands and accepts, would be the one change that would affect him most. And yet, I haven't seen him once complain about that.
The principles that have driven our vocal objections have been around the logic of the change. AKV-Value going down in price, 1BRs going up in price, etc. Not trying to rehash the data debate, just pointing out that a lot of us are not upset because of the personal impact of this change, it's what appears to be the lack of transparency and failure on DVCMCs part to appropriately address this change, and from early contacts, their refusal to supply any support for their position.
A lot of us don't share your trust in DVD/DVCMC/TWDC; that they will always operate in good faith. In the absence of that trust, we will (and should) question things that don't make sense to us. Have some of us (and I definitely include myself in this subgroup) gone too far in our language and tone in adopting a guilty until proven innocent position? Maybe? Probably? But DVCMC bears some responsibility in how they have handled this whole thing. From waiting until after the condo meeting, quietly releasing it during the holidays, and refusing to providing justification/guidance, they have done themselves no favors.
