If it’s needed, it has to be a timely response while the iron is hot, so to speak.
Here’s my thinking:
If they don’t even so much as broach the subject, such as saying “we’re actively working on it / we won’t release it until 2020,” then we should assume there is a chance they have no plans at all to ever restore the OOT.
That is when we need to make our voices heard loud and clear to let them know “yes, we want this and we will pay top dollar for it.”
