- you are willing to fork over an PMU/SWU
I "assume" that no "Z" inventory has to be available to upgrade you on DoD. But if indeed no upgrades will cleared without any available "Z" inventory as it is the case now then it's nothing but the old gamble with slightly changed rules. Have sent an email to DL to clarify this, so far no response.
I agree with your assumption. My take is that "Z" will still be used for advance upgrades, but DoD gate upgrades won't be "Z" dependent.
