Libre 2 to be "phased out"

You could apply the new sensor earlier and just initialise it closer to when the old one stops working?
That would be the “sabbath” then to be sure all has settled in? The reliability is not the issue for me. If Libre makes it a 21 day sensor? You’re looking at a gem. I seriously feel with the added 24H Abbot don’t think some of us have jobs. (It’s not thought through.) I don’t work at home at a computer.
 
As someone who works out in the field, I can’t be doing with a changeover during a working week? I have other commitments to adhere to.
Surely you’re at home / wherever you sleep on work days, with 2 minutes spare at some point in the 24-48 hours before your sensor needs starting?
 
Sorry, but your personal logic eludes me?
Do you go somewhere to sleep or rest or eat on your work days? When you go to that place you can put a new sensor on ready. Then when the current one runs out it doesn’t matter if you’re in a field you can start it.
 
Surely if people have a failed sensor then their renewal day will change anyway so could be any day of the week. Does that cause a problem other than frustration at the failure.
