As we get more people into these pools, I think survivor pool posts will become major posts and our zapping them will matter more.
For the time being, you're essentially acting as a philanthropist supporting the upstart areas of SN.
Even though it went very well for me, I would also prefer if they did something a bit more different. If we think about why they do these experiments, though, it makes sense that they would continue it when all of the metrics improved.
It remains to be seen if the metrics improvement is sustainable.
One could argue a lot of the increased activity was artificial due to the contest and will go away once the contest goes away or when people get bored of the format or when some people get really good at gaming the system and the rest decide chasing on the hamster wheel is a waste of time.
I love hanging out on SN but I always look at SN from a business perspective as well. What would I do if I was running it? What needs to occur for it to go beyond a niche platform to something more? Maybe I shouldn't be looking at it that way, it is not my company after all, but it's the way I am wired and I have no other business to think about right now. Haha.
I am just going to go with the flow this month and do my thing. I don't care where I rank.

I fully expect you're right, but it makes sense that they want to investigate further.

That's exactly how I feel, too, and I'm sure we're not alone. That will make this month the better actual test of this rewards scheme.
