Most of the thousands of us have a [redacted] ton of credit line spread over several banks; we could "bustout" if we had a mind to. I opine that the bustout calculation that banks supposedly apply to its customers is little better than witchcraft. Speaking of which (note the play on words there
), bustout shutdowns are like burning someone you suspect of being a witch. If you're right, you get rid of a witch. If you're wrong, meh. Yeah, bustouts happen. But there's no accounting for how many shutdowns stop a bustout―or abuse a customer with no such intention. Meanwhile, Chase says "meh."
