If you can't get those currencies with chits, then chits are less
valuable.  Perhaps that just means those rates need to be raised to
match the PBA's rates, but frankly the PBA's rates in those currencies
too high to be worth trading for, and they don't seem to be headed
down very fast.

Besides, you're missing that part of the point of flushing the RBoA's
coins is not to correct things, but to engineer a counter-run against
the PBA's assets.
