I am going to delay upgrade in a few months when it's my turn, but that may change depending on the situation.
Valid points, however, during the hindsight era, I was consistently crediting a solid amount of credit due to those glorious green bars and a little MOT pick up to work maybe 12 days a month on the days I wanted. (Nothing amazing…125+ range). In that particular scenario I felt very fortunate to sit where I sat on the FO list.
I’m in a similar boat as you e6 and I’m not discouraging upgrading but I’ll sure miss the flexibility when I pull the trigger. Lots of things to ponder.
