I know you’re being sarcastic, but that is a real issue that is important to many of your peers. Objectively SS and 2 day coverage will reduce reserve GS and therefore PB days if all else is equal. However, there are so many variables that’s it’s almost impossible to do an accurate comparison.

Whether they reduce them by an unnoticeable, insignificant amount or by a lot is up for debate and to be honest won’t be known for a while as SS are so new and the company is still testing the waters a bit to see what works best for them.

We are also protected by the 48 hour soak time which ensures there will still be a significant amount of reserve GS going out. That’s a protection that I hope a future MEC never messes with or gives away in negotiations. Ever.
