Well, I do not want to move from automated processes to something where a
human needs to take a long time checking lists and pushing buttons. That's a
recipe for the whole thing to just stop working. In fact, if anything, I'd
like to see us automate as many badges that are now manual as possible.

Plus, instant gratification is important -- waiting for someone to do it
once a quarter will absolutely not be as effective as letting someone earn
their badges in the middle of the night when they feel inspired.

But anyway, I'm pretty sure that there are things which we _do_ want from
both Fedora Accounts and the message bus. This amount of observability into
actions people take is really powerful and one of the reasons we can do cool
things in the first place.

So once that's needed, I don't think there's really much difference between
needing 10 and needing 10,000 -- both are more than 1.
