I don’t think there was anything wrong with the example Scott, twas a fine illustration. Teams all had to have some point to base their budgeting plans off though, thus naturally that was used. It would have factored into how many staff they thought they could support, what their asperations would be etc (you obviously get this, I’m just writing that for other readers).
I’m glad we all finally got together to meet and could clarify that lowering I_rep was comfortable for the mid-lower P-Rep teams. Prior to that everything felt rather unknown and uncertain.
