As I said, I think the original points system was a case of "it seemed like a good idea at the time". It had became clear that it was just too much of an advantage to pick short priced runners. I think this new system is fairer and I wish I had used it right from the start, but that's the way it goes. As for Stix's comment about changing the points system now, I think that's better than keeping it the same all the way through when you know that it's flawed.
