My question is, why did the miners not anticipate this- aren't the rules more or less agreed to in advance? Or were the rules changed out from under them?

Or is this something nobody anticipated would be an issue?

Most miners thought they bought 10TB storage, they will mine $FIL with that 10TB, but according to the rules, they can only start from like 1TB, most of the storage they bought are useless for mining.

Like in the tweets, many miners don't understand this, nobody tell them the risks in the community, not even the Protocol Labs.

I think mining equipments are over sold, maybe 10 times, due to the lack of enough warnings.
