Conquest Change - intentional?

If this is really as intended, CG could have put out something out in advance along the lines of "as players roster strength has grown, it has reached a point that hard Conquest no longer presents the level of challenge as originally invisaged and intended. As such, future Conquest series (hard) will be scaled at a higher level of difficulty - most notably on boss nodes".

Yes people would have been angry. But at least it would have been forewarned. I'd imagine we are now in a situation that some people, who could previously go deep into hard Conquest, are stuck in the middle of sector 1 and may remain that way for nearly 2 weeks.
