I know they want more bases, but have been cautious to open one. Closing one is a whole nother problem...
Just my assessment.
If this goes through, JB would add 1/2 dozen new bases. With no bumps/flushes but also no base lock outs, JB could manage aircraft and staffing with annual and supplemental bids. Much easier and less expensive than closing/opening new bases from scratch.
