In a limits to growth pattern, an expanding activity encounters a constraint that slows it. More demand may bring more work while a particular preparation step has little spare capacity.

A slowdown alone does not identify the constraint. Demand, measurement, staffing, quality and outside conditions may have changed. Check where work waits and what actually limits the desired result before adding capacity elsewhere.

Growth is not always the goal. For a household routine, success may mean a manageable pile and a fair workload. The useful question is what prevents that result, and whether the proposed change addresses it.
