ERROR "price for accepting offers cannot be lower than or equal to the price for declining offers"

When updating my listings to add "immediate payment required" I received hundreds of errors on my listings stating that "The price for accepting offers cannot be lower than or equal to the price for declining offers".  Since I have done this for years, my question is why?  Below is the example of the fields. My buy it now price is $15.99, If someone offers me $5.99 or more the offer is auto-accepted, if someone offers me lower than $5.99, the offer is auto-declined. 

 

Yet eBay now says that now the auto decline price must be lower. Fine I will put it at $5.98. Since the geniuses at eBay are all smarter than us sellers, please tell me what happens when someone offers $5.98? Is the offer accepted or declined? 

 

Oh, and thanks for making me have to revise hundreds of items to leave out a price where the auto accept/decline function doesn't even work. It seems eBay missed the part of math class with story problems...LOL!

 
Automatically accept offers of at least $ 5.99
 
 Automatically decline offers lower than $ 5.99

Sounds like they changed the code but not the conditions it applies to.

It would be helpful if eBay simply understood what "lower than" means
