Fair points. We were working on these changes, but they weren't done yet, and we knew that the last announcement would need a lot of attention, so it seemed best to just focus on that first.

It's also worth reiterating that there are more announcements to come. This is going to be a multi-phase process because the engineering takes time, and we need to learn as we go based on real data. Hopefully you'll like the next updates as well. :)
