Thanks. We are at the same wavelength.  I do not know what the best
way to answer that question, either.  Unleashing such a change to
the wild is one obvious way to do so, and it will give us the most
accurate answer, so it may be the "best way" if we primarily care
about the quality of the answer, but we value the experience of our
direct consumers even more when judging what is best, so...
