Taking more than 3 days instead of rushing such an important decision.

Why does the timeline need to be so dramatically short? It doesn't need to take years or months, but executing such a change almost instantaneously with a new purchase is careless, crude, and risky.

It also reveals a lot about the mentality of the person making the decree.

There’s a US election a few days later.

Well, first of all, spend more than three days, obviously. If, for some reason, that was necessary (it clearly is not) use historical performance reviews.

I would not get myself into that situation in the first place. ;-)
