...and what exactly would be wrong with that? Worst case scenario the BTA price goes to $10 assuming you're buyer 1001 and everyone else bought the $10 pack. You still get a heck of a deal.

In some cases, the processing took longer than a minute (e.g. PayPal), so they missed the window. The argument is that the buyer would not have otherwise paid $10 for the bundle if it didn't have Starbound. (to be fair, HB apparently has been offering refunds in this case)

Starbound is awesome. Are there really that many who can afford $10 but not $15?

It's not the affording bit. There's three classes of people in this bundle:

1) Paid for Starbound and got it

2) Paid for Starbound a minute late and did not get it, may get a refund

3) Paid for Starbound, or the price defined by Starbound, after Starbound was removed from the bundle

People are understandably annoyed by this -

Or you could buy for $1 and then on the second week increase your amount with just the needed to get bonus + above the average games.

Incidentally, Humble Bundle locks the BTA price needed to upgrade your Bundle at time of purchase, so it's in your interest to wait.
