But, if we have a choice, shouldn't we go for a section that is
completely free instead of one that has pages that need some kind of
reclaim first?

We also don't have to have awkward pages keep giving a 0 score, as long
as we have _some_ way of reclaiming them.  If we can't reclaim them,
then I think it *needs* to be 0.
