    A decocotion at worst would have less oxidation than a infusion mash, unless you handle the mash roughly!
    A pils has no malt character so no need for decoction and they filter it to remove proteins that would have been reduced in a proper mash temp! Filtration oxidizes the beer also!
    They changed because cheaper is always better! That is why I eat at MacDonald's all the time, because it is cheap (it sucks)!
    I make beer to make it better not CHEAPER. If you are worried about working too hard you are just too lazy!

    I'm gonna go and mention thiobarbituric acid and wort stress as a probable cause for shelf life reduction here.

    Not saying I'm against decoction nor in favor of. I'm actually studying the subject to finish the design of our oak pils.
