I am cheering for this update. Honestly, the simplest version wins for me. The boring solution is probably the reliable one here

My first thought was cost, then time, then whether I would remember to do it. My only addition is to make the first step visible

This is useful for some cases, but terrible advice if the stakes are high. Honestly, the simplest version wins for me. Naming things remains undefeated as the hardest problem
