They aren't exploiting the situation by advertising more to manipulate people into buying boss drops. It's business as usual. Business just so happens to include a bit of a higher form of ignorance is all.
I don't buy it, the timing is too perfect, on top of the philo books being around FAR longer than they were previously. And ignorance shouldn't really apply here given how incredibly hard the players have been throwing this down their throats. They know damn well what is going on, and are refusing to do anything (or this was their plan all along).
