Regional pricing on Steam

I'm from South America, so of course I want to voice my opinion. 

Here's the thing, I have Battlefield 2042 pre-ordered. I did before the price increase, and I only did so because I had some extra cash and getting a Battlefield day one on Steam would mean a lot to me as a fan of the series. However, since the price increase this past week I'm seriously considering refunding it. Why? People here won't be able to pay for it, so the few ones who purchased it on PC will either have to play mostly on console-players lobbies if there's crossplay, or we will simple be placed in North American servers, making it impossible to have a fair match for us due to ping. 

EA of course isn't the only company making their games impossible to buy here. I guess the excuse is VPN users? Here's the thing about that: not only it's a minority of people abusing VPNs, but they also don't care about these prices increases. At the end of the day, they will be just paying the same amount they would in their native countries. People affected by the lack of proper regional pricing - us - are just being screwed for no reason at all. Want to stop VPN abusers? Do what EA already does in Origin and limit languages based on where the purchase was made or better: use the OnlyAllowRunInCountries feature.

tl;dr - I'm this close of asking for a refund since most people here won't be able to buy this game. There are better way to punish VPN abusers than making games more expensive.
