well then duh, I don't get a discount. I never said I should get a discount on everything. I just said that if the retailer chooses to offer it to me I should be allowed to use it.

Part of the problem is that many folks have become accustomed to discounts as "normal", and there's a hue and cry if the discount goes away. It may go away because the retailer decides it doesn't need to offer it. It may go away because the producer of the products the retailer sells institutes changes that prevent its being applied. Either way, it's no longer there.

I don't know about anyone else, but I'm not accustomed to discounts - I just like it when I find them. It just makes me PO'd when the publisher won't let me use it. But the discount doesn't go away - I can still use it on other books from the retailer that is offering it. The discount offered by the retailer is limited by the publisher.
