The distinction between tax tool vs tactic vs and strategy is too often blurred! 

I feel like we keep doing this... you're presenting like 10 different scenarios in the same breath, and then missing the distinction between each one... and then thinking you're catching me in some gotcha when you're actually just missing the point I'm making.When comparing two payoff strategies that end on the same date, you compare the savings side by side, over the life of those loans, not the full 360 months.As for the rest about Hondas and whatnot, I have no idea what point you're making.

I want to scope it out and didn’t come across the distinction in my first reading of the law. 

If we have 2 distinct lists, we are trying to alternate them so every 2 weeks we have mail hitting.
