The proposal looks good in general. Like some others, my chief concerns are
around dynamic enforcement. If it's not certain to be cheap enough to be
enabled without per-member opt-out and possibly build settings to turn it
off, perhaps the way to go is to add static enforcement now and prototype
what the cost will be for dynamic enforcement before designing all of these
knobs and switches.
