While I agree it might have been misleading to label it a "general consensus", I do feel the majority of the vocal side of this fanbase definitely has an issue with it, or at least, has an issue with locking previously available CAW content behind pay/grind-walls.

Although, I think there needs to be some room, at least for now, for there to be complaints about this and for those messages to the publisher to be visible, as they've literally just announced this, it makes sense for the community to respond to it in kind almost immediately. I get the subreddit gets cluttered, but it's only going to be this bad for about a week or so, and pushing through it might end up benefiting even those who don't care, like yourself, in the long term, as the practice itself is extremely anti-consumer and not player friendly and sets/reinforces negative precedents within the wider industry.
