You'd hope. If a loosening of the restrictions had a negative effect (i.e. not Houston bad but still bad), would the attempt have been worth it? Are we willing to take the risk and end up losing some of the great work already accomplished?

Personally, I think it is a case of trusting the medicine we are currently using and treating the negative symptoms that it causes. Treating the symptoms can become a dangerous game but we've accomplished so much with the medicine that we are using.
