I haven't heard anyone say that it has no value. I have only heard people question whether it has enough value to not go back to the table. It's kind of like insurance. Most people lose money on insurance (that's how the insurance companies stay in business) but having it puts your mind at ease. However, I wasn't questioning whether we need to lock in this "insurance" now or not, I was asking if it is so important why didn't we get the policy 4.5 years ago? With your TEM argument, are you saying that we made a mistake by not voting in a quick TA with scope early on and now we're realizing that we made a mistake?
