Welcome to BWW -- where people come to bitch and moan about being able to buy prime orchestra seats to a highly anticipated new Broadway musical at dirt cheap prices!

Yes because New York is expensive and, as Fred Ebb wrote, "IT'S A BUSINESSSSSS". If something looks too good to be true of course it raises questions.

You can read on reddit people are already questioning whether some of these tickets will be cancelled. I don't think they should - this is no fault of anyone who got this code. And maybe it was always the intention. But it's certainly interesting.

Also, to be clear everyone I've seen the show 3 times already in London with the original and replacement cast. I'm a fan and wishing it to succeed.

I don't think this code getting out is an accident. Even in a tiny theater, this show is going to need some awesome word of mouth to be a hit, and this seems like the perfect way to jumpstart that. Oh, Mary did something very similar when it started previews and we all know how well that turned out.
