The amount of man hours to plan a campaign, and the amount of work that involves making a proposal (and passing it) is huge. Passing this proposal is taking a lot of time for the Leo team, time that could be used to either plan the marketing, grow the business, or simply improve the dapp.

Yes, it could be made for 6 months, but we decided to do it for 16 months and if after a considerable time the community is not satisfied with the results, they can simply just withdraw their vote from the proposal, but if they are satisfied, we don't have to campaign once more in six months (again, tons of man hours invested in just getting the proposal spread and getting the community to hear about it) and we can just continue working.
