Not really. The underlying rules for Nasdaq has changed.

The preexisting ruleset was used by investors to gauge their portfolio balance.

Now investors have to revaluate their portfolio based on the new ruleset as their fundamental risks have changed.

Yeah, the rules have kind of made the passive investment active. I don't understand OPs point at all. I don't understand why we suddenly change the rules and rush things, and OP has provided 0 justification for that.
