Most important part:
"Why is there a dollar limit on my Reward?
Our dollar limits are designed to provide you with choices on Reward options while also addressing some operational issues caused by excessive modifications. There are now limits of $6 on the 100 Star tier (brewed coffee or bakery), $10 at the 200 Star tier (handcrafted drinks and hot breakfast), and $16 on the 300 Star tier (sandwiches, protein boxes and whole bean coffee). There were already limits of $1 on the 25 Star tier and $20 on the 400 Star tier."

"...some operational issues..."
Less profit. More food costs and labor.
Karenial complaints, due to screwing up complex customizations.

Remember, pigs get fed, hogs get slaughtered. This is them evolving in response to hogs.

That part has no effect on me.
For me, the most important part is the loyalty tiers.

Here is the whole story, which OP should have linked to:
