Whenever a company retracts something by saying it was put there by mistake, it means they were too ashamed to admit they wanted it there in the first place. I'd respect them more if they simply admitted they wanted to make or save more money by doing the unpopular thing. At least that way they're not insulting anyone's intelligence.

It could be. But if it was a mistake, what are they going to say? That it was intentional? Companies have a lot of people and management often doesn't always get a clear idea of who did what and how.

Then that's the fault of management. They're supposed to be responsible for their team. That's why they get paid the big bucks!

They should take responsibility, apologize, and move on. Claiming it was a mistake is childish and insulting.
