I would not like to be considered a coauthor on this one, as IIRC my only contribution was to speak against the cfj changes which you kept, so I don’t endorse that. I think having switches that turn on and off on tracking like that have the potential to create some significant level of confusion with self-ratification eg if a switch is left off the list, then ceases to be tracked invisibly, does it self ratify as an open case and kick off the judge? Or since it’s a single switch type, it’s also not clear to me that a “allegedly complete list” of the tracked ones wouldn’t ratify the untracked ones to the default state. Just raises a whole can of worms that could affect the status of ancient cases in a way we really might not want.
