So what happens if they don't consider concessions? Will their costs go up or down if the Training Ban remains in place? Will recruitment get easier or harder? Will time to upgrade to FO increase or decrease?
Seems obvious to me - don't concede anything - let them deal with the consequences of their own ineptitude. And let TCC's boy 'mitigate' to his hearts content. I believe he has previously mitigated an SO's wife;-)
