If we aren't holding paper certificates the company has no accurate info on who has held shares for decades. I even lose my cost basis info if I transfer long held shares. Sounds good but it just isn't happening under current system. It would be expensive drama. If you held shares long-term your YOC is low and that is your incentive.
