You're saying it can't be a bait and switch, because you have to leave the bait out intentionally and then take it away intentionally.

I'm saying that the person who laid the bait doesn't have to be the same person who made the switch, and the person who laid the bait doesn't have to know the switch was going to come later, just like the person who made the switch doesn't have to know the bait was being laid. S* happens, and calling this a "bait and switch" isn't instantly disproven because a bait and switch is bad for business.

My point is that even in the best scenario for ea/cg the short term gains were minimal. The increase of revenue they gained by rewarding shards for replays as opposed to not rewarding shards for replays is so gosh darn low that it doesn't make sense for it to be a "bait & switch".
