This was my thinking on why I wasn't for lot-by-lot when B-L first used this, but I have since changed my mind because the "flexibility" is a myth. There is no flexibility if you are unable to stay up. When I lost out on one of my lots I would have switched my bid to another card in LOTG, but I wasn't awake when it happened at 1:15am Central. So either way my money didn't get reallocated.
