FM/BP-862.V1.04 - Principle 17: Benefit must outweigh Burden
The benefits of any given piece of doctrine must clearly outweigh the effort required to write, teach, and enforce it.
This threshold is significantly higher when:
- Replacing Existing Doctrine: Changing established procedures is more burdensome as members must unlearn old habits and adopt new ones, especially when the existing doctrine is deeply ingrained.
- Impacting the Majority: Broad, unit-wide changes receive greater scrutiny than those affecting small, specialised groups due to the interconnected nature of our doctrine and the potential impact on other areas.
Last major change:
Addition of new unit wide guiding philosophies.
