For a history of bad B&N decisions, need we look any further than the Nook? Why do you think that B&N would suddenly make a smart decision when it came to Fictionwise?

As I recall, when B&N bought Fictionwise you began proclaiming its death at the hands of B&N -- long before agency.
Fictionwise ran with it's business model even after B&N bought them. There was no change in the way Fictionwise did business until the day agency kicked in. So how can you say it was because B&N bought Fictionwise? It was agency that caused the change and the downfall.
