Equity has a very different view.

Lastly, on the crews, is it the case - nobody is answering this - that if one works for designated activity company, DAC A, it is 100% owned by the producer company, DAC A disappears and exactly the same producer company sets up DAC B, but claims that it is not the employer of the employees of DAC A. That goes on with A, B, C, D. It is the same producer company employing the same people but, because the DAC is now gone, that producer can say that they are not his or her employees.
