I don't think Daic has "won" anything at least since Feb 2008.
Instead, it appears that he is still struggling to come to grips with how and why it is that he is in the hole he is, and continually losing. I think they've perhaps come to enough of an awareness now that they've decided, too little, too late, to quit digging... maybe.
Perhaps they're now thinking the best way out, from the bottom of that hole, is to dig out by burrowing through side tunnels ? The prospect doesn't concern me... and it seems vastly more likely, to me, to contain a "self correcting" mechanism.
