Not only that, but they would likely be smart enough to slow/stop whenever they see it affecting subs; It's a dial like any other. Tweak the dial a little bit, see how many "top players" you keep and how many "bottom of the barrel" players stick around. Do it again until the people leaving is the same as or more than the people you hold onto and there's the sweet spot.

It's surely what they're doing now with lowering the difficulty. They're seeing complaints from people about it being "too easy" but on the flip side seeing people stick around.
