Well if 10 years is flawed isn't 1000 years too short as well?
If you want to seperate noise from signals having more data helps a great deal.
To know how much data you need to have a certain confidence you need to do a lot of math.
If someone wants the case that 10 year is enough, that person should lay down why he thinks that he can make good predictions based on a complicated mathematical climate model. That usually something that you don't find outside of peer revied articles.

Talking about this in terms of “bad news” or “bad judgment by business leaders” seems archaic. It’s like describing World War One as “a serious diplomatic concern.”
