You've said this repeatedly and it indicates that either you don't understand accounting or you don't understand the FASB proposal. "Time of grant" is an instant, not a period, and no one has ever suggested expensing the option at that instant. The proposal is to value the option at "time of grant" and expense it over the vesting period (typically years).
