Why end snowbird golf discount so early?

I don't understand why there is any cutoff date at all on the golf Passport card. The "Snowbird" card is new this year and basically serves no purpose.

The vast majority of snowbirds leaves on April 1 and aren't around to use the card after that regardless of what the expiration date is.

I won't be buying the Passport card next year. I have already purchased a different discount card that expires in May of 2016.
