Now one single regression/offseason giant post that could’ve easily been in one neat little update becomes two posts for. . .reasons, I guess?

Hopefully I don't get a smack down for speaking for HO, but since I had a small hand in crafting the language I'll give it a shot:

By allowing players to add TPE earned after the regression deadline to their build before they regress, players were allowed to push off the regression caps that is added to attributes once they fall below a certain threshold. It was easy to add the tpe to your build so that regression would not bring you below those thresholds once you actually regress. By restricting regression to only tpe earned prior to the posted date is more in line with the spirit of regression/regression caps than allowing players to push that further and further down the road.

Believe me, the goal was not to make your update more tedious, but to align the process with the spirit of regression. Overall I don't think a majority of members were consciously doing it thinking they were gaming the caps, but instead they had your concern with having a neat/easy update which I can appreciate. It would be easier to just have it in one shot, but separating an update post into regression and then the rest of your added tpe isn't TOO crazy of an ask imo. But I also tend to have longer updates.
