I believe that this is a business and I accept their decision. Yes, it pushes people to buy new cameras and lenses. However, as I have stated, My k-5II is still up and about. It's fairly new and the camera's age is only over 3 years old with a shutter count at only about 11000+. Noting Pentax's AF, I would like to compensate on the lens speed. If they can fix it, it will open up my choices to the newer lens models. Then I can slowly grow into the system by adding kAF4 lenses and then upgrading bodies in the future.
I guess I have my own kinks and quirks. I have a k-3II and the kAF4 will work on it. But I always practice standardization. One of my requirements is that all lenses and all accessories must work on all my cameras. Well, I think it's just me.

Actually I would've bought the new 55-300 PLM lens if it worked on my k-5II. I bought my camera last February 2, 2014. To me it's still new and the shutter count is still low. It's a great piece of equipment to just simply leave on the shelf and replace with a new one. I wish there will be a way that we will be able to use kAF4 lenses someday. I also like this lens. If it can be sued on my k-5II, it would replace my sigma 10-20.

I'm glad that Pentax is coming out with new APSC lenses. To me this is a commitment to keep the APSC k-mount. If this will work on my k-5II, I'm considering it too.

.Wow! The problem is, it looks like it's KAF4 mount. So, it won't work on my k-5II. I'm sad.
