I would also add, without being too cynical, if the GOP is trying to avoid a verbal political firestorm from the Lefties by continuing with these little incremental delays, they won’t be successful. There’s nothing they [GOP] can do OR not do, that will subdue those verbal attacks, they’re going to happen, regardless!
If they don’t allow extensions, they’ll be attacked. If they do allow extensions, they’ll be attacked. (Longer time extensions should have been granted, more documents were needed, more people needed to testify, on and on...).
You nailed it.
They need to go on and get this done. Dragging it out will only make things worse.
