Me too! I definitely wasn't in that cluster.

"Treat to target" means something slightly different to me. I was treated with prednisone for a really long time both before PMR and after PMR was diagnosed. Nothing ever changed about "managing my symptoms" with prednisone

Eventually I got off prednisone with help from another medication. That would not have been possible for me without the other medication. I think other treatment options targeted at the inflammation mechanism involved rather than managing the symptoms with prednisone.
