That is precisely what I was implying but didn't make explicit, yes. Seems like a key point to say, "Ok, rather than keeping the American people in the dark, let's talk about something that matters
right now."
Relevant snap poll from SurveyUSA:
SurveyUSA News Poll #14454
10% of respondents say they think the debate should be suspended, 36% think it should be refocused on the economy. 46% say a debate not happening on Friday would be "bad for America".
Rapid response polling, take with grain of salt, etc.
