The target forward-looking period should be allowed to exceed 53 weeks

A forward-looking period of more than 12 months produces very different models than a forward-looking period of 12 months or less. It is therefore useful to allow such a long look-ahead period. It is easy to implement.

I agree with this. Forecasting out longer periods of time is an unexplored area that can be addressing with rolling tests.
