Thanks, that's kind of what I was thinking. Or is it good to go ahead and do it anyway just in case they use that to prioritize who gets the VDB in the first place? But is there any downside to volunteering in the app, i.e., does doing so potentially limit your compensation to the amount you selected even if the offer at the gate is higher?
