The fix

What is being changed at the constraint.

The part

What it is

Only the constraint is worth improving. Effort spent elsewhere makes the queue longer and the team busier, which is a worse outcome than doing nothing.

The cheapest fixes are usually standing decisions rather than more people: a pre-agreed boundary within which no approval is needed.

The smallest level

The attributes it carries

Each attribute is one of the framework’s shared types. What a date is, and how it is written, is defined once for the whole model — the note here says what it means in this particular place.
