I strenuously object to the way Miscavige promoted the idea that anyone reading LRH's books before the Basics came out must have had MUs (allegedly the transcriptionist's). The fact that Ron was alive then and would surely have been aware if the books were not what he intended cuts no ice with Miscavige. I don't buy the argument that Ron never reviewed his books after they were published. I believe the real reason for the Basics was so that Miscavige could position himself as a savior and establish his control over Scientologists.
But absolutely the worst thing Miscavige did was to eliminate the inexpensive DMSMH paperback. The reason was supposedly that Dianetics deserved more than to be presented in a cheap paperback. But that cheap paperback was many folks' first introduction to Dianetics and Scientology. People who will buy an $8 paperback at a fair or on the street would never consider paying $25 or $35. Miscavige totally cut Dianetics' reach into the society.
