Summoner Soul Rewards - Soulless Vs. Soul Survivor

Greetings,
So I was wondering about the Summoner Soul Rewards we got.. After the last event like this, I'm sure a lot of people held off on selling their souls. I mean, that would be the most logical thing to do.
However what I can't wrap my head around is the inequality of the two rewards. One you sell your soul and you get 30 boosts that could have been the determinate factor in some people completing their very first Master. As well as getting the visually pleasing title "Soulless". The second, you wait the full duration of the event and even resist the urge to sell off your soul for some extra item use points. In return you get a sloppy "Soul Survivor". Don't get me wrong, the punniness isn't lost on me. It's just not very pleasing to the eye.
I just don't see how it adds up and feel slightly gypped. I mean, it's really not that big of deal, but I can't be the only one that feels this way. I hope that future events like this are more even in reward distribution. Just my two cents on the topic.
TLDR
Soulless Title + Boosts ≠ Soul Survivor Title

When they announced it, they made it clear that all you would get for not selling your soul is a title. They even restated it in threads that popped up speculating about what you would get.
That's not what I was debating at all. lol.. A title is all fine and dandy. What I was saying is that the rewards should have some semblance of equality to them for future events like this. Like with hitting the lotto, choosing the immediate lump sum payoff vs the prolonged installment payoff. There should be some incentive for the people choosing to wait. Instead we just got a title of equivalent value(rarity) to the other but not to the total sum of rewards. So for instance in this case, my opinion is that the Soul Survivor title should've been pushed up a tier in rarity. There's no point crying about spilt milk though. I just hope that Kabam might take this into consideration for future events like this.
They did with the Rocket Death Button and people got upset after they pushed it and got less rewards. So, this time they told us exactly what we would get and let us make the decision. The boosts were easy to get. I burned over 100 the last week for Item Use since I had already beaten the Master Difficulty 100%.
The Death Button literally told people not to press it in the tooltip and the mods even made an announcement confirming exactly the same thing. I think the Death Button event was done perfectly.
I also had a build up of boosts after running heroic and master but that's a false equivalence. One is over a prolonged period with required user activity, whereas selling your soul was an instant payoff. Pretty sure 30 was the exact amount you'd have after a full difficulty clear.
They specifically told people that keeping your soul would give you a title and nothing more.
There's nothing logical about assuming that they're lying to you and then claiming that you were cheated when they do exactly what they said they would do.
Again? Jeez. I was never debating that they had lied to us. From what I saw they only mentioned it would be a title, they didn't give any other information or tell the rarity of said titles. So no. I'm not gonna beat a dead horse. Work on your reading comprehension and lay off the selective reading before you decide to post next time.
I think I'm one of the only players that has almost all the titles, albeit the crazy, stupid ones for arena, and sports a title-less avatar.
