Just because you take something into consideration does not mean it becomes a criteria. But I think we can all agree that it would be a mistake in a mass layoff to accidentally fire the top 10 contributors to a given project if the 11th contributor only ever made 3 contributions all just updating comments right?

Well that sort of logic requires you review the logs. It doesn’t have to mean you set up some arbitrary “anyone under ckloc per week is fired”
