I'm not celebrating anyone. Although I do have an appreciation for policymakers who can adjust quickly, and I recognize that making rules that aren't exploitable is difficult given you're fighting an uphill battle against incentives and the opponent will therefore attempt to find any small and unpredictable loophole in order to maximize profits.

It's unclear if you're saying the intention of the rule is bad, or merely the way the rule was implemented is bad. If you're talking about the former, you haven't justified that position. If you're talking about the latter, then you are fixating on an irrelevant detail that will be corrected and should step back and look at the bigger picture.

I don't think triumphalistic declarations of war from legislators who have just written a badly worded law should be celebrated. If that's not big picture enough, either justify why that is, or please refrain from telling me what I should be talking about.
