Thank you for the response. It is good context, and if I understand right it sounds like things even out if and when there is a sale.

I'm certainly somewhat cynical, IMO it is the rich that write the tax codes and laws... [1] I do wonder if the sale can be readily gamed. For example, do the sale after retirement, in a year where you have lots of stock losses from a recession or something.

Regardless, I appreciate the added context!
