Why would that make me feel the least bit slighted? I have 7 retainers. That would give me 8 and, if they did things correctly, a maximum of 9. What, you really thought that they'd just change it to a 3 free/5 paid split instead of raising it to 3 free/6 paid in order to accomodate those of us that already have the maximum (or near the maximum) number of paid retainers? An extra retainer for everyone really is a lot of space, and when they add space they have to assume that it's going to be filled.
