This is pretty standard=2E  However, I find the 2 days for
retreats/builds is often just dead time=2E

I counter-propose this change:
Move    next  83=2E00
Retreat next  36=2E00
Adjust  next  36=2E00

In English, that's 3=2E5 to 4 days for moves, 1=2E5 days for
retreats/adjustments=2E  It works out about the same, but you get extra
time for moves (the fun part) while the bookkeeping phases are
expedited=2E  It's similar to how FTF works=2E
