Principlev1
Calculate tool migration costs as weeks of degraded
Calculate tool migration costs as weeks of degraded processing throughput and weakened habits rather than hours of direct migration work.
Why This Is a Principle
Derives from Habits as Context-Response Associations (habits require stable contexts) and Task-switching generates attention residue that persists (task-switching generates attention residue). The principle prescribes accounting for distributed temporal costs rather than just immediate costs.
