SQ - when it doubt, do nothing. (Lesson from the 5 ticket banquet penalty)

If you are like me and taking the 5 banquet ticket penalty for accidentally playing the game in the wrong time window and assuming keys and such were released in sync with the event - here’s the lesson I learned.
Look at the timers. If it’s not less than 7 days in the objective or the event, do nothing. Don’t be proactive. Don’t think the design of things being gifted or unlocked matters. Assume it’s all a trap. Don’t get tricked into enjoying the game and playing it. Just sit on everything you can and block out hours on the final weekend to compete it. But even then it’s not that easy - as you have expiring timers through the month. Just make sure you do the bare minimum. Err on the presupposition that they don’t want you playing side quest.
If I did this, would have 5 more banquet tickets than I have now. Stupid me played the game.

Agreed, nowadays calculus seems more simple than these side quest designs, lol.
But thank goodness I have all these extra bounty missions that are yet to be unlocked by the timer. 🙃
Also, to get elite bounty using regular bounty missions, you just have to defeat the defender but not to complete the quest, so you can defeat let's say, vox, and quit out, do it 5 times to get elite bounty ticket.
May try the ticket route… but if they are giving out the item to fix it, they should give everyone an extra key - that’s all we need since we have 2 left in the calendar
I've explored all the weekly maps and completed the Elite Bounty Missions enough times to pick up the 5x Banquet Tickets but I have 1 side quest ticket remaining and will pick up another in a couple of days from the calendar.
Do I get to repeat the side quests claim additional resources e.g. 33,750 mysterium?
