Please use alternative measures e.g. opt in, adjustable threshold setting, save all matches in a cluster, etc

As well as all the reasons others have given, we spend a lot of money on your tests. It is hugely unethical to remove results we have already paid for. Please reconsider.

I needed this data to keeping working on finding my ancestors in colonial America... what an insult to serious genealogists, and others who NEED this DNA data. They promised it, you pay, they take it away... with no practical way to preserve all your work. Unethical and disrespectful. Please keep these valuable lower cM matches, and give the member/user the choice/right to process/see/use them or choose a higher cM level. PLEASE

Please don't do this! I have numerous 5th and 6th cousins on my tree that were proved by DNA at 7 centimorgans. I use my tree to find living cousins, and changing your system will remove a very useful tool for me. Why not have a option to choose the minimum centimorgan match, like Gedmatch do?
