You can also see it from the point that what will come in ten years won't be likely the problem of the current people in charge. It can be postponed, changed, canceled, speed-up or whatever. A lot will be different in ten years than today and a lot will happen in between. In a way it's easy to plan something which will come into effect in ten years because such decision doesn't hurt now.
