I understand your points, and agree that it's a negative impact to players requiring transfers to funds not supported by the client. However, charging a small fee is completely normal in banking circles, and PokerStars are only transferring the costs onto the players rather than continuing to eat it themselves. This money is not going into PokerStars coffers, it is the cost of making your transfer.
I also agree that PokerStars communication with players has been pretty awful recently, and needs to be worked on rapidly.
Just because I don't agree with you, doesn't make me a shill for PokerStars.
