Things like development at the cost of winning are too abstract for people to understand.

It is not unheard of USSF from revoking DA. Certainly if a club ends up not being competitive.

I'd assume that they'll give GDA clubs a year or so to get things figured out. Some had a significant head start on others so it would be unfair to judge based on year 1. It would have been interesting if all participating clubs could have made their announcements at the same time instead of so staggered.
