I suspect it’s because some users will actually be pioneers and early adopters vs believing they are.

This kind of threshold adds some flexibility into the subjectivity of finding the best cohort to test a feature with.



Where the best cohort to test with is the one that agrees with you...

You can call this measure "courage" but that is not actually what you are measuring. What you measure is not that different from agreement.


I didn’t use the word courage, still I understand what you’re saying.


adontz did above, that's what they called this user-tolerance-for-experiments metric. I didn't mean to imply you would too, apologies.


Oh, no need to apologize at all.

I could have clarified as well that I was leaning more towards the user-tolerance... or as I like to call it user-guess that this feature might be OK with them :)

Another thing I like about granular and flexible feature flag management is you can really dial in and learn from which features get used by whom, actually.... instead of building things that will collect dust.
