    2023 will be a long year, I think?

    What is interesting is how they seem to find out critical issues out of the blue at the last hour. What I think is happening is
    they've run into glitches, estimated the time-frame to fix them, failed to meet the time-frame then announce at the 11th hour that
    they need to postpone.
