If they merged it with the CO, it would OK SAO in that division and that may have various downstream effects. If they allowed major pf, it would affect both limited and open divisions.
Beyond that, the rumors are that this is being pushed by lobbying from 2011 makers. I don't think that decisions should be influenced by what industry wants to sell.
