In the end I think you have a case but the program is new this year and this may the the first real test of mass cancellations.
Be patient and don't get overwhelmed or stressed about it, give it some time.  They are swamped at the moment and once the dust settles they'll have time to focus on specifics like this.

RCI reserves the right, in its sole discretion, to determine if an Offer is accepted or not, regardless of stateroom availability.

Refunds, credits, or changes may be issued only in the following circumstances: 1) RCI cancels the cruise, or 2) RCI cancels the cruise and re-books the guests onto another cruise in a stateroom class that is lower than the upgraded stateroom class. Any refund or credit will be limited to the Upgrade charge and credited back to the Credit Card in the same currency of the original charge; no other charges or fees of any type or nature will be refunded or credited.
If RCI does not accept the Offer, the original booking will continue, and persons associated with the booking will travel in the original stateroom category. RCI will not offer and guests will not receive any compensation, consideration, or other benefit as a result of the Offer not being accepted.
Modifying or Cancelling the Offer or Booking by Guest After RCI Accepts the Offer

I think people will find Royal does the right thing.  They always have for me.  In the end things always work out.

Prior to 2016 there were a number of alcoholic drink packages available, one beer, one wine, one that covered some cocktails and another that covered even more.  It was confusing so they were consolidated into one "Deluxe" package.  Prior to 2016 sharing was not allowed.  
Throughout this period Royal was the only major cruise line of the big three that did not require everyone over 21 to purchase a package if any one in a cabin did.  Carnival and NCL both required everyone in a cabin to buy it if anyone did.  In 2018 Royal followed the others and required everyone in a cabin to buy it if anyone did.   Faced with people stealing and scamming the system they relented and adopted the current policy which is now industry standard.
Pricing models are based on historical trends and average consumption over the length of a cruise.  These differ for short 3 night cruises compared to longer sailings so the price of the package differs for short 3 night cruises compared to longer cruises.  The same would hold true for a one day package.   They would have to increase the price to reflect a general trend of increased consumption for one day.  I believe a one day package would lead to more binge drinking and drunkenness resulting in a lot of security and medical issues on board.  That doesn't apply to everyone but a significant number of people would drink very heavily with a one day package.  For this reason alone I believe they won't offer a one day package.

If the guest cancels, like on a normal sunny day.  
If Royal cancels that paragraph applies.

Every storm is different.  Some have more rain, some more wind, some more surge.  Some move fast, some move slow.  
If a strong storm hits there will be some damage.  Decorative panels ripped off, trees down,  roof damage,  water and sand in places where it isn't wanted, but the primary core structures should be okay.  
If a big storm hits they will have to close it while they restore it.  On Jost Van Dyke the famous bars on the beach had sand up to the roof line.  They had to move massive volumes of sand and then make repairs from sand and surge damage.  The same would occur on CocoCay so while it is designed to withstand strong storms that doesn't mean they will re-open the next day without having to do anything. 

I’m on Indy now.  Here is the posted info for the slides:

I'd sit on hold and notify by phone.  
Call C&A, the main number will be really busy.

It is!  Ship happens.

Agreed.  "Celebrity blue" or black would have been better than "OMG orange".

I'm glad you've been able to find humor and laugh at the situation.  It's the best medicine.  

LOL!!!!

I think they are more inclined to make it Suite only and ban Pinnacles.  Or adopt a limit on Pinnacles like they do on elite heavy sailings, something like 2 visits max per week.  Problem solved.
The Royal Suite program generates a lot of revenue and is in place partly because of the competition.  Eliminating a suite restaurant would be a huge competitive disadvantage.  
It's only been around since 2016 so it's new.  Three years is hardly a long time so they'll likely adapt it before getting rid of it.

Typically the next cruise is shortened but the one after goes as planned.
Refunds are offered and for guests on the ship when it gets extended they get a longer cruise for free.  They typically are also offered super cheap rates to stay on the next shortened sailing.  
When this last happened Harmony turned the subsequent 7 night into a 4 night.  A lot of people took the refund, some guest stayed on and the ship had 1/3 the number of guests compared to normal. Imagine an Oasis class ship with only ~2,000 guests.

La Bamba was okay.  We have better Mexican in Colorado.  
Can we still be friends?
