I could envision something similar (- the BCD), calculating the training cost for the remaining years of service to repaid. But even then, there are plenty of people who absent some negative characterization of their discharge, would look at that math and find it in their favor.

Focus, please.

Go read it. You are lying here - again.
So is the change in honorable versus LTH for jab mandate stuff.
Got some professional advice; before you stick your foot in your mouth, again. Go do some reading. Take about a month, then come back here. I'd be happy to provide you a professional reading list to assist you.

Hopefully you’re not giving people advice of any consequence.

A kid doing palace chase doing the exact same thing would have to pay down his obligation if he did not fulfill his commitment. You’d be cool with that? That’s nuts.
