I’d see it as a cost reduction, both in governance overhead to you and the community:

and probably in actual financial cost as well. OGP funds other critical services for the Osmosis community (Fireblocks, DAODAO, Numia, etc), and ISG/OSL is very much a critical service, so in my opinion this is within our scope if it’s needed.

But to be clear, the OSL has been funded by governance since its inception, and as long as governance is fine continuing to do that it works for us. I just wanted you to know the option is available to you if you need it.
