I was in the same situation pre-tweak, but that was mostly because I decided to avert the coin grind by simply playing through a bunch of songs without powerups at all just to get comfortable with the gameplay and getting used to the mechanics of raising multipliers without them. In a sense, I just did a lot of practice runs. Then, right as I felt I had banked enough coins to be able to use full loadouts for the foreseeable future, they changed the system.

I can definitely see how the old system would have totally screwed people who were trying to shoot for high scores on particular songs, or taking multiple runs at Score Wars, etc. For people like me who (for now, at least) just play new songs constantly, it wouldn't be as big of a deal. But now, it looks like I'm very likely to clear a million coins well before my song list is exhausted.
