No shit? Wow, eight years in this business and I never noticed that.
Moving out of the realm of the sarcastic:
The point is, if a program is not converting a certain slug of affiliate traffic in a profitable fashion, but then later turns around and buys that same slug of traffic for 2x, 3x, 5x, or 10x times what the traffic was "worth" when it went in via the affiliate program, it strongly suggests they weren't dealing fairly when they were processing the traffic as affiliate traffic.
