One thing I find difficult about the policy is that it's hard to
compare the different kinds of costs.  How many lines of code should I
remove to justify increasing the number of support tickets by 5 per month?

Maybe we should recommend in-kind cost trading, so an increase of 5
tickets per month would be offset by reducing tickets per month
elsewhere, rather than by removing code, making landings easier,
automatic operational tasks, etc.

Also, there's a lot of duplication in the "increase" and "decrease"
lists.  Maybe just one list of "things that are costly"?
