I find that on average, it seems a new system produces benefits that exceed the costs necessary to institute it. Kind of like how in glycolysis, ATP molecules are required early on in the pathway, but the process eventually ends up getting you more ATP than you started with. (One of the few things I remember from ninth-grade biology...)
That’s good input though; I haven’t really been scrutinizing to check to see whether interventions are paying for themselves.
Although it certainly seems that over time, one could learn how to make interventions more persistent, or what kind of interventions tend to be most cost-effective.
