I disagree with the whole logic that has been invoked. As far as I can see, pacing yourself as an Arb as if you have a long stretch ahead is the way to do six or nine months useful work. Which is about the most people can take, on average.

I think the point of this conversation (or one of the points) is to figure out how to avoid having only a handful of active Arbitrators each year when October rolls around. One way would be to allow Arbitrators to declare a long break (without fear of criticism) and have Jimbo appoint a temp fill-in.
