Exactly!

I have been advocating for a long time now about not cutting tables with conservatism. IMHO, always have absolute minimum deco tables and pad-on-the-fly as needed (i.e. more work on bottom, colder, etc).

This allows you to know what is the (theoretically) absolutely minimum to surface in case you need to (i.e. emergency, cold, pee-pee, etc).

You could always add, but it is more difficult to subtract (safely) unless you could do "deco in head"...
