I don't think TM can be faulted here, they just drew up what the descriptions on the official festival site said. These descriptions are the crux of the matter here, and here they are again :
GA Tier 1 – access to the area directly in front of the stage
GA Tier 2 – access to an area closer to the stage than general admission
GA Tier 3 – access to the main spectator area
FIRST POST UPDATED ! Holler if you see anything that should be added!

The Rolling Stones have actually paid someone to come up with all this Tier 1,2 and 3 crap along with the hospitality, crappy overpriced beer tents etc.
Hard to believe it all realy.

@BowieStone - What's that "some controversy" you're referring to? Did it occur when the BJ tickets went on sale ?

I think the new lay out is a reaction to the reports they refer to on their facebook page:
"Contrary to reports in the press, if you buy a £95 ticket to see the Stones in Hyde Park you have the opportunity to go right to the front of the stage, where the action is!"

People,
Just a thought, but is it possible that the diamond tier 1 & gold tier 2 area are actually located in front of the stage and accessed with a walkway from the bar/grandstand areas, which would mean in effect that the front of the GA tier 3 ticket area is not right up in front of the stage, it's behind the gold as was originally thought by all of us who went with the tier 1 tickets ?
I'm just wondering, if looking at the new layout diagram, whether they simply haven't drawn in the actually diamond/gold areas slap bang in front of the stage, and accessible by a specific walkway of sorts ?
What think we ?

I'll admit to just a touch of malicious glee that for once the toffs might not have managed to hog all the goodies by waving fistfuls of fivers - but there's probably some explanation that isn't obvious from the "bottleneck" diagram. Anyway, I got what I paid for!

besides that it this is unbelievable at all,it seems to me when i look at that picture at the park it,s not save at all. so i hope and think that the security people and authorities of london will not allow this setting at all.rene

Hahahaha!
The first The Stones make angry the poor fan section either by them not wanting to buy at all the "cheap" ticket option since they will be too far from the action, or if accepting the deal, they will moan since having poor "seats".
Then the rich elite folk section go mad since they have bought the most expensive tickets, and seemingly they will not get as good "seats" as they thought they can have with all their money. Instead these poor buggers will be there...
Priceless.><
