if i remember blocktrades has no strong opinion on powerdown time, so he voting no right away makes me think he does not want to include any new code to this HF. especially something that is connected with stake and funds.
i know they moved resource credits code to after the HF just to not wait a week or two and change the finished code.

If that is the case I could understand for sure! My day job is QA so I definitely have had my fair share of 'lets just push this in last minute' blowing up in my face and pissing me off lol
