Yeah, all fair. What piqued my curiosity is that you could wait _less_ time than you did before (potentially not at all!) which feels like the opposite of what you want to do in such situations.
Indeed, it was a good question. That's why I couldn't let it go either. I personally find the result quite interesting. Counterintuitive, but the most uniformly distributed load is probably the most likely to recover.
