If the people around you are planning for 1y and you're suggesting they plan for 7976y, I think that's probably radical enough.
To suggest they plan for 97975y or 997975y seems a bit obnoxious. At that point you're either just being contentious for the sake of it, or you're pretentiously implying that you have godlike predictive power.
Why not two zeros? Or three, or more?
