Not really.
I don't think at this stage they have the luxury of waiting another year to tour. With John having had cancer, and Christine's physical problems - wasn't there an issue with her hand, and wasn't she not playing much on the BuckVie tour? - I would understand that there's an urgency to get moving with a tour. Why not seize the moment now whilst they still can - there is no guarantee they will all be healthy enough in years time.
If Stevie wanted to delay the tour at this point, I wouldn't be impressed, at all. Delaying a tour 7 years ago is a very different story, compared with the situation right now.
If Lindsey suggested delaying the tour until next year, I can fully appreciate why they said no, and why they needed to move on without him.
