I was not responding to your post. expose had a post that said it didn't affect the round, but she edited it after I already posted mine.

I actually disagree that it "doesn't" have an effect on the round, because it does. Now, the top runners already (with 300 points) ran 5/5 times on VDLI. So, adding a new setup doesn't only change the payouts (even a minor change) but it also makes them have to find/choose a new setup to run on. It's a pretty big inconvenience on the people who were doing well on the setup removed.
I could see changing a setup that no one played, but, in my opinion, the decision that was made originally, even if "requested" by a trophy winner, was a bad one.
