Nadav, as usual, a well-thought out article making excellent points. My frustration is that this "waffling" sends a bad message to the ultimate users of the LEED program, who are the building owners and managers (our clients). These folks are looking for long-term stability and predictability in codes, laws, regulations, and yes, LEED. Much like the government enacting legislation that creates a budget for 3 months, only to need to do it again in another 3 months, putting the LEED program out there and then saying essentially "never mind" does not create stability and predictability. If our clients' job is to manage and minimize risk, this change is not helping them to do that.
