I agree with your thinking on this completely.

While there is an opportunity here for other sites to pick up market share, it probably won't change much. I think Stars could do it because they already have a big player base, but they really don't have the incentive to offer "R" or more frequent bonuses, which is the primary inducement needed to pull in more people. The smaller sites already do "R" and bigger bonuses, that hasn't changed much of anything to this point.

Party has the multitablers by the balls and they know it. If you are a multitabler, are you going to go to Prima, etc. just for "R"? You might for a while, but with the lack of enough games you'll eventually go back to the Party fish pond. It's always been about the fish, it always will be.

This was a brilliant business decision by them, no matter if one likes it or not. And while we are at it, call in the priest. It's time to administer last rites to Empire/Eurobet/Multi/Intertops.
