They've never offered "VIP" at most of these venues, and when they do they offer some kind of premium seating (usually in the first 15 rows or something for pavilion shows). That means x-number of tickets that would have been in the seating assignment pool that will now only go to those willing to pay a premium. And don't for a second think that premium won't be significant.

Phish also doesn't have a fan club with a yearly fee.

The best comparison to Warehouse is Pearl Jam's Ten Club, but you ignored that post.
