They could, either amend to a three-way (complicated and risky), or tack on B6 as soon as SOC is achieved. SOC is kind of the hump, after which they have the freedom of action to get everything structured per their vision, and eliminate duplicate overhead.

But their DNA is very risk-averse. The current leaders are objectively more aggressive and innovative than in the past but that doesn't quite put them in the Doug Parker league, at least by my estimate.

That's true enough. Essentially a slam dunk.

So maybe SOC in two-ish years, and then seize the opportunity?
