No sure about pros other than Legal protection
Also they always uses retail stores as an excuse for their actions over the last few years.
Cons for them is the PG program has been a major recruitment arm for them. Most of their Top Staff (that aren't founders) started out as PGs. Not to mention that the PG program was their main connection to the player base. PGs were a major way they new what was going on in different METAs over the world.
As much as the player base feels disconnected from them right now. Losing PGs really hers them as a buisness, and I'm sure they wouldn't have done it if it wasn't for the WOTC lawsuit.
They depended on that program alot as a company, it was a vauble asset I'm sure they are sad to lose
