Question about two sentences with the same meaning as I try to rewrite.
1. With change happening so fast, the argument went, why be prepared when nobody knew what to be prepared for.（original）
=
(my guess)
2. With change happening so fast, the argument went ，when nobody knew what to be prepared for why (it should) be prepared. =
3. With change happening so fast, the argument went , for example, on why (it should) be prepared when nobody knew what to be prepared for.
Question:
Which is grammatically correct?
Do they have the same meaning?

Hey! If you are changing the second clause of the sentence to mean the same thing, you could say, “With change happening so fast, the argument went, since nobody knew what to be prepared for, why be prepared?”
