For me the metric is proportionality - the amount of extra effort we're forcing people to go through should bear some relationship to the change they're trying to make. We can't very well complain that people don't upstream things if when they try to do so they have to jump through some tangentially related hoops relating to the existing code in order to get anything done. We can and should *ask* people to do additional cleanups or whatever but creating requirements that dramatically expand the scope of work someone's having to do are a lot of stop energy.
