I tend to agree. There seem to be any number of ways to substantially use the existing infrastructure in a way that minimally turns the federal exchange into a number of virtual state exchanges, just enough to pass the "smell test" to consider them state exchanges. And some of them don't require any further Congressional action.
Until such a "fix" were put into place it's a real possibility that federal subsidies will be ruled illegal and have to be returned. If I were getting federal subsides I'd be budgeting for that. And I'm not of the opinion that this "fix" would be ruled legal either and it would surely be challenged.
