I think it would be good to have metrics on rates at which different
people break inbound, partly because I think the system works better
when people use a similar amount of care to each other (as opposed
to some people being less careful and breaking inbound a lot, and
others being very careful and doing lots of try runs).  The metrics
are useful to give customized advice to different developers, as
opposed to providing general advice ("use try more to avoid breaking
inbound" / "use try less to avoid wasting resources") that's wrong
for many people.

I think it would also be useful to extend the "try high scores" to
all trees, so that it counts inbound (etc.) landings and backouts.

             Before I built a wall I'd ask to know
             What I was walling in or walling out,
             And to whom I was like to give offense.
               - Robert Frost, Mending Wall (1914)
