BCBS’s own website dates that statement release as December 5th. So yeah, you’re making it up.

It goes through rounds of lawyers and actuaries long before an insurer changes coverage policies. It's absolute fantasy to think they threw this change together practically overnight.

I remember reading that it was coming before Luigi, but like the person you're replying to, I can't find it after the enshitification of web sesrching. It's buried behind a billion articles about Luigi.

There were complaints about it before, sure. Absolutely nothing from BCBS backing down before.

You’re dismissing it, despite all evidence to the contrary, because it doesn’t conform with your worldview. Maybe you’re not in a position of accusing anyone else of believing a fantasy version of events.

Yeah it took a few edits but I addressed that the article I found was updated on the 6th so I could possibly be wrong here.

I tried but I kind of feel like I've failed.

You admitted you were wrong. Most people here wouldn’t do that.
