Unhappy Motorcraft brake fluid reformulation 550F to 500F

Well i was at work today (i work at a ford dealer) and noticed a slightly different looking motorcraft dot3 brake fluid bottle, still looks almost the same but slightly different. I thought it was a little wierd that they would just change the look of the bottle so i looked on the back to make sure everything was the same, but it wasnt. Until recently motorcraft dot 3 brake fluid was one of your best bangs for your buck as in terms of brake fluid. I am assuming as a way to cut costs motorcraft reformulated the fluid from a 550F dry boiling fluid to a now 500F fluid. So much for having the best bang for your buck fluid. Just thought i should let everyone know before they buy a few bottles expecting a 550F formula. And for those wondering about wet point temps i dont remember but it did also decrease, ill check monday for specifics.
