Restructure hierarchies at the point of friction rather than
Restructure hierarchies at the point of friction rather than proactively across the entire system to keep costs small and signals fresh.
Why This Is a Principle
Derives from Directed Attention as Depletable Resource (cognitive resources deplete with sustained use) and Human beings make decisions under conditions of incomplete (bounded rationality under constraints). This prescribes WHEN to refactor (at friction points, not proactively) to minimize cognitive cost while maintaining responsiveness. Actionable, general, addresses the timing decision for restructuring.
