Sounds more like just closing a loophole.
This is not about early access, where you buy an unfinished game that may never be completed. Advanced Access is the fairly uncommon offering where buying some sort of special edition gives you access to the full, complete game a few days before official release.
Advanced Access is time spent with the finished, release-state game. There was no reason for this to have not been counted before.
Problem is that it's usually not a finished game. The old way at least gave stupid players a way to punish bad publishers.
This is a bad move for the customers.
The "bad move" is a customer pre-ordering in the first place. We, as consumers, should know what's up by now.
