I really enjoy your point :-) but I see things differently. I think stretching your investment means you learn about how markets and investment really works because you will make a lot of mistakes during a period of time.

Rushing into market means you will make less mistakes, but bigger ones.

I like this observation that you can take time to ease into it. A lot of the risks of investing passively are really on the individual and the right mental approach is extremely important too.
