No More Apex Packs From Leveling up

I understand this is by design, I read those patch notes. I wrote this here because it causes a decrease in desire to play a game that I truly enjoy, there's no reason to keep playing if I am not earning anything besides 600 legend tokens. By the way I have 50,000 of those and there's not much use for them. This is a bug in my opinion and needs to be changed. I initially didn't see the issue with the level cap because I was under the naïve assumption that I would keep earning apex packs every five or so level ups. I understand the grim situation of becoming max level. Now there is no reward for reaching max level except for the level boarder. I guess my levels are retroactively given to me, but what about other rewards? 

So with the retroactive leveling up, will this also award players apex packs for those levels? I am technically level 515, so am I right to assume that I should be rewarded at least 2 apex packs once the level cap/prestige system gets implemented? I have now opened 300+ apex packs and cannot receive anymore so those heirlooms seem more like a pay reward than actually from playing.
