Natural Gas Powerhouse? Anyone want to comment on this article?

I would love to hear what some of the more experienced guys here think about this report as it pertains to natural gas trading, LNG, whether or not this is a positive development for traders in this space, etc.

On the plus side we will have an extraordinarily liquid market. But this usually lowers price and volatility. Will the market stay complex and still provide opportunities in the physical space?

The reason I brought this up is because it seems on the surface every "positive" development for the industry is actually "bad" for trading. Prices can't hold a bid. The forward curve is flat as a pancake. Even going out 10 years!!!! The guys investing in storage are getting killed. And LNG will in theory cause more price contraction. I'm curious what other actual traders think about this. Maybe I'm reading this all wrong. Of course the silence is kind of confirming my theories.
