SkyDrive: Double standards?

I am really finding the positivity in the comments towards Microsoft downgrading new users to 7GB of free storage from 25GB on SkyDrive confusing.

Not only does this prove that Microsoft was actually giving you that much storage because they knew you couldn't use it, but it's insane that they would be allowed to decrease it to 7GB and not get called out by Microsoft fans?

So many people claimed Google Drive is going to be crappy compared to SkyDrive because Skydrive had so much space, but new users will only get a 2GB difference between the two.

So, Microsoft fans. What makes this change acceptable? Because, in my view, it's appalling.
