That's the same argument on a smaller scale: I asserted that we needed 

(and then benefited from) a smaller haystack for the needles of 

interest, and you're saying that the new, much smaller haystack may 

still be too large for effective needle finding.

We call this the "stop bombarding me with noise" and "why was I not consulted?" conundrum in the Fastmail exec team - and it's a problem for sure.  When we solve that problem, then I'll be rich enough to fly business class to our next in-person meeting!  Maybe even first class.
