Commenting here before I read the rest of the posts ...
In the first case there are players gaining a competitive advantage (more chips) than the rest of the field.
In the second case you are effecting all the players in a manner that essentially is invisible to the actual poker playing, only the payouts.
My point is that, similar to a cash game rake increase, players resist changes and then adapt. Whereas putting a player at an involuntary competitive disadvantage is viewed differently. GL
