Fine if you don’t want as many customers, but I understand the business model is increasingly comparable to gambling and focuses on whales.

People say companies’ main purpose is to make money, when those companies do stupid shit like this it really calls into question the truthfulness of that statement. Since they’re clearly losing customers and money while not gaining anything for their efforts, then they’ll jusify their bullshit by saying “Market research”, “predictive Revenue intelligence”, “Customer satisfaction” and plenty of other buzzy corporate terms that sound smart but don’t really have much meaning.
