people whose equipment has power, and are therefore not as limited in the
footprint of their code, prefer storing mode as it reduces the distance of
the some traffic, and maximizes the bandwidth available.

The metering people (AMI) specified storing mode in the applicability
statement.  Traffic distance doesn't matter as it's almost all p2mp.

I understand your statement to be disinterest in new partial storing modes.
