This DLC policy is absurd and violates business ethics. (Destiny)

This is not a big deal. The new content is just part of the rotation. On certain days/weeks you won't have access to them, but most of the time you will and can level up just fine.

I never said anything about leveling up, but obviously that's another (and very closely-related) can of worms which, it seems, has been discussed quite a bit.

What I'm talking about is broad removal of access to immediate gameplay.

If you are really against how this works, then MMOs just aren't for you.

I'm fully aware that MMOs aren't for me. Destiny also isn't an MMO.

Even if it was, that doesn't really justify this. When MMOs actually cut off old content, it usually has sensible design reasons, similar to Halo 3's choice of restricting playlists. And when changes that inflict restrictions or removal of previous content do concern content purchased in bulk (as opposed to subscriptions in which the time-limited terms are spelled out in the purchase), it doesn't exactly tend to happen over just a 3-month lifespan.
