'''Comparison note''': But for the tedious scattering of “VM” all over the place — and one different cross reference ({{csaprov|11(d)}} to {{vmcsaprov|11(e)}} where a customised {{{{{1}}}prov|Exchange Date}} might be defined), the {{vmcsa}} version is identical to the {{1995csa}} version. Because it was ''perfect'' first time.

Note here the {{{{{1}}}prov|Transferor}} can ask for an exchange, but the {{{{{1}}}prov|Transferee}} is not obliged to accept it. This is a fundamental provision of “title transfer”: once the {{{{{1}}}prov|Eligible Credit Support}} is delivered under a [[title-transfer]] {{csa}}, the {{{{{1}}}prov|Transferee}} owns it absolutely. It only has to return {{{{{1}}}prov|Equivalent Credit Support}}. This is a special, [[ISDA ninja|legal ninja]]<ref>Oh, all right, and [[GMSLA ninja]], [[Repo ninja]] and other kinds of [[ninja]]s too.</ref> use of the word “[[equivalent]]”. It means “[[fungible]]”; ''exactly the same as ~''; not “broadly similar to ~”.

This is important also from a pricing (and operational) perspective: otherwise the {{{{{1}}}prov|Transferor}} would have a “worst-of” [[option]] and would be entitled to continually switch into the "cheapest to deliver" of the {{{{{1}}}prov|Eligible Credit Support}}. Needless to say, the increased collateral flows would also increase the operational burden.
