One of my favorite sayings is "Less is More." Absolutely I would buy it! Isn't this the way most of us Joni "lifers" discovered her: STAS, Clouds, LOTC - and of course Blue! As much as we loved the gradual integration of jazz and instrumentation and production - well until DED at least ;-P - one voice - one instrumet is where SHE can be heard best.
Also marketing wise this could be a way to get a lot of attention and sales and recognition. In fact if Joni did walk away in this dramatic fashion and went off and took to the refuge of the roads or went to Amsterdam or Rome or took a walk a park a bridge a tree a river - well you get the picture ... perhaps she could get inspired to write some new material about the twighlight of her career or life. Then secretly hide away in a studio and record everything her way and play with it and tweak it and ... Voila! The come back kid with plenty of fanfare and press - OH Joni let me handle this for you! It will be the biggest marketing scheme since New Coke! You may say I'm a dreamer ...
