Your whole post is all very rational, all very comforting. But then how is it this thread has got to almost 30 posts and the basic questions first posed are still unanswered?

Many of those who wanted someone to fight their corner and were willing to pay for it have now made their choice and paid: all based on assumptions that because this organization is fighting 2257 they want the same as we do and are capable of getting it. What we can lose is that if it works out, fine, but if not, any small impetus there might have been for us to find a better collective solution is gone because this convenient option was to hand.
