You also paid for Fate of All Fools, we all did. But Bungie took that away from us to try and make one guy feel special. Bungie didn't care about him at all, they just wanted free positive PR as they scream out "Hey look! we're nice to the less fortunate by taking away something for everyone and giving it only to them! Don't hate us, aim your hate at the victim we just created!" There was no problem giving someone early access to be nice, but the power of Bungie's spite was to make sure it would turn negative somehow, whether people target that individual specifically, or call out Bungie on their BS.
