Speaking as one in an area where no club exists, it strikes me as unfair two ways.
One, HL changed the rules without any notification to its society members and two,
it gives preferential treatment to a subset of HL collectors. We all pay the same dues to belong to the Collector's Society so we should all be given the same chance when registering.

Also, for those of you who try to get low number pieces and are not in a club, forget about a low numbered reunion exclusive.

I would be willing to bet that the early registration for clubs will fill 1/4 to 1/3 of the available slots for the reunion.
