My argument is that, the purpose of the Autumn and Winter Sales is we're expected to see staggeringly great deals. That is why so many people have looked forward towards every year with Steam. When you see a game that's been consistently 20% all year, it's been released 6 years ago for example and it's active on the Winter Sale with the same exact price as it had been? It defeats the purpose of being involved in the sale in the first place.

It's a matter of to each their own as to what game they think is currently having a great deal and that's factored in whether or not that they have it. I'm seeing deals of games where I admit, are at extremely better price points than when I originally got them for. But I also can say that there are games that are on sale right now, where I remembered getting them at better deals way back when.

I've already pointed out that it's also likely that I've been acquiring a majority of the games that I want and that if I partake into this sale, I'd only be spending for the sake of spending which may likely not be worth my expenses.
