Will Manifold abolish the new "click to get your loan" system within a month?

Every night, Manifold give users a loan of 4% of their outstanding bets. The reason for this is that we'd be massively disincentivised to bet on long term markets otherwise - it would mean locking up your Mana and leave you unable to bet that Mana on other markets until your "Will x happen by 2100" market is resolved or you cash out of it.

The details of the old loan scheme are here:

https://docs.manifold.markets/faq#what-are-loans

In the last couple of days, this has changed so that we no longer get this loan automatically - we have to visit the Manifold home page and click on the treasure chest marked "loan" to get the loan. If you forget to do it on a particular day, you've lost the ability to get that day's 4% for good - you can't catch up on a later date.

Will this new system be removed by the time this market closes in a month? Or will it be modified so that the main thrust of the new change (you have to click every day or you miss out on new loans) is removed?

Resolution criteria:

  • If the feature is removed, this market will resolve to YES

  • If the feature is made optional (ie. there's an option to automatically collect loans), this market will resolve to YES

  • If the feature is modified so that we get loans for the days we missed, this market will resolve to YES

  • If an unofficial, user-created method is widely used to get around the new feature, that will not count

  • If the feature is temporarily taken down for technical reasons but Manifold make it clear that it is not their intention to remove it, that will not count

You still need to click every single day if you want to get your loans, so this resolves to NO.
