Its a bit annoying when you are on 245k VPPs and they remove the 250k VPP bonus.

Its true I can now get the 250k rate with 100k bonuses so its good long term, but if I'd known one day earlier I would have made the VPPS and cashed out the 250k.

Not that it really matters its just annoying.

I heard the rake is lowered at 2/4. Not sure about other stakes...

There's no difference in the amount of cash he will get.

I am loving that 37% rake decrease in capped pots at 2/4 though!

But it is different... Right this moment he could only get 2x$1600 for 2x100k FPP, instead of $4000 for 250k

Exactly, that's what happened. I was all geared up for the 4K! Anyway I decided it didn't really matter, I don't need the extra 800 just now so I cashed out the 2x100k bonuses.
