im confused why people a. think spez had enough control to make these decisions. b. that killing the 3rd party apps wasnt the point.
almost zero notice, exorbitant costs for stripped access...

There's a lingering belief that Spez is the same Spez who criticized Digg as too corporate and described Reddit in terms of community. It's difficult, sometimes, for people to realize when fellow travelers are no longer fellows.
There's also some satisfaction in knowing that in the end, you did all you could to avert a bad outcome. Even if it passes, you don't need to have regrets.
