That goes for most of the birds, part of the field. Dockable stuff like 
ISS and Hubble and a few others share this property. But the price for 
that kind of action would be... considerable. They have the redundancy, 
so no real need. What they do want to is bring it into constellation 
since it is kind of working and sits there, but if they are not sure 
that it will work with receivers... they could have it just flying 
there... they have more birds coming up the launch-pad soon enough.

Cheers,
Magnus
