Will The GDC Change Climb Points?!?

[MikeE]

Earlier thread on the same topic

If your primary intent is to score as many points as possible, and you can't climb above a 10-point hang, then it makes complete sense to decry any change to the current points.

If your intent is to score as many points as possible and your team has a full-pyramid climber and you are attending the Championship, then it makes sense to hope for the GDC to increase the current 30pt climb to 40pts.

If your intent is to encourage an exciting spectacle then it also makes sense to increase the points for a full pyramid climb.

What I don't understand is the argument that making an adjustment which has been explicitly listed in the Game Manual since Kickoff is "unfair". Why is the blue box in section 3.1.5.2 any less "fair" than other parts of the game design?
