Hey Tim,
If you could see the tree in person, you would realize that it is headed for a bunjin. The trunk has a lot of very subtle movement that is not apparent in the picture, particularly near the top, along with a near-perfect continuous slender taper. Chopping the tree would ruin that. The branching is also quite twiggy, which again is hard to see in the picture. Thanks for you comments,
zube
