What's the sunken cost of this policy?

This seems like such a hugely expensive policy to enforce for what problem exactly?

What policy is this a consequence of?

What kind of policies are you referring to? I don't quite understand.

ethanbond | karma 13235 | avg karma 3.16 · | 2023-06-29 16:12:06

That’s a good point! I’d be genuinely shocked if the policy didn’t account for a way to solve that.

This is circular. You are saying that we should have policy B, partly because A is too expensive. Why is A too expensive? Because of policiy B!

What is the policy?

Lawtonfogle | karma 3350 | avg karma 1.83 · | 2015-12-07 16:01:15+00:00

I've never heard of this. Does this policy have a name I could read up on?

spywaregorilla | karma 6714 | avg karma 2.33 · | 2022-07-26 14:57:01

So... when does this actually result in some sort of demand for change? This idiotic policy can't work forever and the cost seems high. What's up.

Estragon | karma 4008 | avg karma 2.55 · | 2012-05-20 16:37:32+00:00

I'm really curious about the actuarial basis of this policy.

EddieEngineers | karma 150 | avg karma 2.08 · | 2023-05-17 10:01:21

Isn't this an insane policy?

beefman | karma 12655 | avg karma 6.02 · | 2022-06-02 11:02:36

Right. That's the policy that's bad.

Daishiman | karma 7437 | avg karma 2.91 · | 2014-01-24 00:53:43

I'm asking you because evidently nobody knows, so all this speculation about the disadvantages of their policy seems to me like smoke and mirrors.

anoonmoose | karma 1894 | avg karma 3.19 · | 2023-04-12 09:38:44

The policy I linked isn't new, just recently updated- they started wading into those waters a long time ago.

mizzao | karma 2786 | avg karma 3.99 · | 2018-12-23 15:10:06+00:00

Can someone who is more familiar with the actual policy shed some light on this?
