Could you say more about how you measured the result? I want to try this but I am not sure what success would look like.
We ran into the same situation last quarter. What worked for us was starting small and only adding complexity when a real need showed up.
Solid breakdown. The only thing I would add is to back up before making the change — better safe than sorry.

Tried this on a staging copy first and it behaved exactly as described. Confident enough to roll it to production now.
