#1 - "more rooms for the rich"
#2 - there will be people who can only attend, say, Thursday through Sunday, but will get a 6-night reservation because they thought that was the only way they could guarantee getting a downtown room; what happens when they arrive and the hotel informs them, "You didn't show up, so we gave your room to someone else"?

Talking about when the portal opens, not getting bumped. It opens and you start at 'if you book a room, its a min 7 days. Then a week later drops to 6.. then 5 then 4.
As for 'more rooms for the rich' it's capitalism. Entire Con is capitalism. Whomever can commit to the most days probably should have priority.
But regardless of my thoughts I'm still thinking 5 days is in the cards for more hotels in 2025 and I'm thankful that the hotels and Gen Con do this because if this was pure capitalism, there would be no housing block. It would just be open season on hotels and pricing.
