This isn't out of the blue, I did talk about it with developers and
meetings and with pono.

Though I understand that this must look out of the blue from this

"Out of the blue" isn't the issue. Surely every vote that comes here is a surprise to someone. The issue is approving it after the purchase is already made. It impedes the ability of the PLC to provide governance, which is its job.
