I think there is a difference between a would-like and a sure-would- 
not-ever-like. - The first is much more like a plan since it is a  
possible plan, where the later is a plan not to or never to.

I say this, since i when i first read it, understood 'there are no  
plans to' as 'there are plans never to' which proved not to be the case.

One could argue that a flaw in - or a mixture of - my understanding  
of grammar, time or aristotle.
