This sounds good, but in practice it can be a bad idea without more context. I learned that one the expensive way.

Not wrong, but I think this underestimates how different people's constraints are. I would write it down before changing anything else.

There is a hidden assumption here that not everyone shares. The social part surprised me too.

This sounds sensible, though I would need to test it myself. My friend tried it in Berlin and had the opposite result. This is exactly the kind of tradeoff teams argue about for weeks.

Amazing how much difference one small change can make. The Kuala Lumpur example makes it feel concrete.
