Thanks for the pointer to SLOs; I've read more than a few posts about them but it never clicked, will look more closely.

My point, I think, is still that the overwhelming focus of the tools I've seen focus on the kind of fine-tuning/setup you are describing and not the things that I find most valuable. And I think that part of the problem is that it's easy to build technology around mechanics than judgement.
