It is your own choice on where to spend them? I don't think so for you are forced to go down certain AA Trees before others and that is not a choice.
there is always a choice saying otherwise is a cop out. if you need to spend X points in one tree to be able to invest in another is not forcing you to invest those points into the required tree. you choose wether or not to spend those points
are you being coerced in any shape or form to spend those points? no
has someone made threats towards you if you dont invest points where they tell you to? no
*If*, where and when you invest you AA points is your choice and yours alone

1) Why do you care about this? You'd really need to state that to be offering a valid opinion, short of that, it's merely some prejudice you've inexplicably decided to forum warrior over. There's so much of THAT on these forums that it often passes for fact or informed opinion but still, it ain't. Reiterated prejudice, aka repeated uninformed opinion retained contrary to any other evidence has no value.

2) in other parts of this thread you talk as if the 20 additional AA's from AoD where put there for the TS tree, ah no they were put there to sell the expansion, since it was "Feature" expansion. They were put there to spend, and spend in the non-TS tree.

3) Choice, yes another great forum kneejerk genius truism. The thread's about widening choice and options. No one is forced or coerced to log in but having logged in they get to have reactions to the mechanics and content presented them. No one is forced to pay a subscription month after month but having paid that subscription, people as paying customers of a service, are entitled to request or suggest or demand a refinement of that service for which we've paid. This is an entertainment product. It should therefor be entertaining, and should, wherever possible, maximize that entertainment for the payer/player. The OP asked for Convenience gawd forbid there be less tedium in an entertainment product.

Now as for the disingenuous "no one is forcing.." haha. Like any group would knowingly put up with "I have 40 points in my AA TS tree". At this point in the game they should just open up AA advancement to fill out the trees completely instead of adding even any more Prestige abilities. They have an easier time with class balance and encounter design.

These forums have gotten so incredibly useless I truly hope the Devs HAVE stopped reading even redactions of them.
