No disputing they can run their business how they want.
But then complaining about someone posting truthful comments about how they do it is a bit rich.
Own it if they want to work this way.
It's funny you are worried that I should be more supportive of SBR sponsors... the OP was in another thread abusing me as a paid shill.
Truth is I have no better idea than any other poster here who has what deal with SBR and no-one from SBR admin has ever asked me to be nice or nasty to any particular book. Not even the major sponsors with ads at top of board.
