I agree completely, the real problem is excessive options, and shareholders want to curtail them with expensing... using a false claim of increased accuracy in financial reporting as the motivation for accounting changes. One thing further though- if a stock such as cisco is held primarily by institutions, and Cisco rallies on a new stock options grant, there are only 2 possibilities imo: 1. institutions are not on the side of shareholders for one reason or another or 2. Institutions understand the risk/reward equation for options and think they are appropriate and postive for the company in question on some occassions.
