A short sighted decision again. They leave him alone and players have more incentive to push toons to r7/8 but likely spend more resources on toons for the raid than the added rewards they receive.
Now players just spend fewer resources on the toons for the raid while spending resources on toons that will benefit longer from the resources. Some will, by chance, spend it on toons for the next raid and cg will give more rewards out for that raid.
Even if you dispute this, cg has once again reinforced the idea that they will nickel and dime the community at every opportunity.
