An inetresting point to consider. Cuts both ways, of course. C-Series wouldn't go to DCI. Makes this a bad thing. But if the line is to be kept alive only for 70 more, I assume we're not going to have to endure a request for more during the next TA. This is good.
Maybe this is a smoking gun? I'm all for listening, but I would want to MAKE SURE this is true. Before I kept asking "What is the leverage?" Nobody knew exactly, including me. There had better be verification rather than just speculation. Without verification, then this means zero.
