It's not a tactic, as far as I can tell. The T&WA rules (or possibly
TfL's own rules about making T&WAs, not sure) require you to have an
identifiable source of funding before you waste everyone's time with a
public enquiry. The timing of the postponent (just before they were
meant to submit it) says they simply couldn't find any.
