I build huge buffers but analyze: are buffers making me slower? Map time estimates: with buffer vs. realistic. Calculate: if buffers create complacency (Parkinson's Law), should I eliminate them? Show me the buffer trap: generous buffers encourage slowness. Give me the tight scheduling: estimate realistically, don't pad with buffers. Include: whether buffers are making me inefficient, if tight deadlines would force focus, and whether I should schedule optimistically not pessimistically.
