Complain all you want about the timing of the review, but doing so without acknowledging that they ultimately got it right and implemented what is ultimately a better system for investment, is either ignorant, or willfully ignoring a positive outcome to make a point.

They may have gotten it right at the end of the day, and of course that's positive. But it's also undeniable that the review itself drove investments elsewhere.
