Instagram kills Twitter integration deader

Instagram, the Facebook owned social photo network, that previously cut off support for Twitter's media-rich card feature has now cut off all support for any all forms of embedded images. Twitter confirmed the change in an update to their original post:
Instagram has disabled photo integration with Twitter. As a result, photos are no longer appearing in Tweets or user photo galleries.While tweeting links to Instagram photos is still possible, you can no longer view the photos on Twitter, as was previously the case.
The result is that Twitter users will no longer have any idea what they're going to see when they tap or click on an Instagram link.
So for Instagram to win, Twitter users have to lose?
