Absolutely. We haven’t had enough time to fully assess the impact of the change. Continuously adjusting the pricing before we’ve gathered sufficient data will make it difficult to determine whether the change is ultimately beneficial or harmful to the project.

The users aren’t required to do anything they don’t want to. So far, only a small number of people have expressed concerns about the price changes, and from what I’ve seen, those individuals typically own more than 10 domains. This supports my earlier point that the changes primarily affect domain squatters who hold a large number of domains.

The popularity of Tezos Domains is closely tied to the overall popularity of the Tezos blockchain itself. You’re right to compare secondary market sales and similar metrics to .eth domains, but it’s important to recognize that you’re comparing the most widely used blockchain to Tezos.
