I think this is a key observation about the situation FIRST found themselves in -- that there's no obviously superior transition between the current model and slide 7. There are factors, not all of which are visible to us, that cause them to move away from slide 6 in 2017.
When I said "good transition" in an earlier post, what I meant was that it was a transition that would merit consideration (a "good choice"), not that it was the best choice. If I was making the presentation for the town hall meeting, I'd be sure to discuss that and what other options were considered.
"Why this decision now?" is another good question for the town hall meeting.
