It is more than a little managed that ned and dan stopped powering down. They are the largest stakeholders. Others in the dev team are very large stakeholders and have stopped powering down to (I don't know how 'managed' that is, but ned and dan are plenty to describe the situation as managed).

I articulated my point poorly. The point i was trying to make was that the powerdowns really don't have that much of an effect on price. I think its laudable for ned, dan and other major stakeholders to hold off (especially since it would avoid the perception that they changed the rules for their own benefit) but ultimately, i don't think it would make a ton of difference from a price perspective, unless they powered down and immediately dumped the power downs on the market for whatever chunk of the bid book they could get (and i take it as a given that none of them are reckless enough to do that).
