The way it was explained to me was like this. A raid card has a unique value for an episode but looses value after the episode. The COG's are items you pay cash for that are removed from inventory after the episode. Since the item was removed by the seller and not the consumer it becomes an issue. Allowing a player to keep the COG over time benefits both the buyer and seller. Apple agreed we deserve to keep an item we purchased regardless of its value.
