either take LWOP if it suits you're situation or stay stood down

What I don't understand about the aggression from certain posters here is that an individual's decision to take or not take LWOP is not dependent on anyone else's choice. So as per the quote above.
The other point of interest is the statement that LWOP saves you from CR. I does if you are still on LWOP at the time. So how much LWOP are you prepared to take to try and avoid CR? 2 years? 3 years? 5 years?
A lot to consider if you are on a fleet that has work (ie A330) or one that will likely have some soon (787). How many years of work and currency do you sacrifice to avoid the possibility of CR? Where is the break even point?
If it was as simple as taking 12 months LWOP to avoid any future CR, then I suspect there would be no discussion at all.
