Yes, make it very small, like 8 pounds.

A 30 pound mechanism can consume several weeks of 16 hour days, well after bag day. Us mentors are already exhausted after 6 weeks - extending build season due to withholding allowance makes the process unbearable.

Mentor burnout is real, and a big w/h allowance exacerbates it.
