I don't think the business case is the issue.  It is the timeline over
which the sense of urgency becomes important enough for most execs to take
seriously.  That's still a large unknown.


Why should they care about the timeline if they aren't convinced it is even
worth doing?

If they're convinced that it's not worth doing ever - then you're wasting your own time. They may think it's not worth a lot of effort over the immediate future but if the effort is spread thinly and integrated into regular infrastructure upgrades over a longer period of time then that's an easier pill to swallow.
