I'm just saying that with their TOS, they can, and will state specific affiliates as 'non-productive' and change their payout from Bangin' PPS to FuckYouGoAway CPM, despite that traffic working wonderfully with their competitors.

This is just my personal view as a former webmaster, and I know I'm not the only one.
We have very aggressive payouts. The simple fact is that not everyone's traffic can perform well enough to warrant those payouts. We try to be very flexible and will wait probably longer than we should in most cases to see if more orders will come in. When it's clear that the type of traffic or the country of origin isn't performing to the matrix that our payouts were set to, we do convert. No sponsor is willing to lose money.

If you get converted to percentage this isn't a death sentence. As a matter of fact the vast majority of our largest affiliates are on the percentage program and are quite happy. Even still if you have been converted and are upset about it I invite you to either contact me or another affiliate rep to see about negotiating a lower per click payout or per order payout that would allow you to stay on your preferred payout program. We'll do everything we reasonably can to keep you happy.
