I think the better analogy would be - you go to your favorite amusement
park - that had your favorite roller coaster - that you had been riding for
six months - and with no prior warning or explanation - the Heartbreak
Inducing - Super Exciting - Mega-Roller Coaster is replaced with a
kiddy-ride.

When you complain about it - they initially say that there was no change to
the roller coaster. When you show them pictures of the old and new one -
they say they'll look into it. After six months of no response - they come
back and tell you that the original roller coaster was way too scary - that
the other customers who didn't like roller coasters - but preferred the
twist-o-whirl - were complaining that the roller coaster was too exciting in
comparison - and had to be toned down - so there twist-o-whirl was the most
exciting ride in the park...

why isn't working as intended a valid response? that's like going to an
amusement park, riding a roller coaster and saying, well my idea of a roller
coaster is different, it should have 2 more corkscrews and a loop and
expecting
the amusement park to reconstruct it to match your specifications. if you
don't like it, ride another ride (try another class) or if you really don't
like it,
don't go to the park anymore (cancel your account). but either way, it's a
waste
of time and energy to keep ranting about it afterwards.
