This is a great list that I wholeheartedly endorse! The hardest $@#$@#$@#$@# problem is convincing students that experience actually matters!
A team doesn't need to have all or even most of these to be successful. I think we have about half. I would add one other:
Mentor-"guided" processes: What I mean here is not that mentors need to actually guide the processes, but rather mentor provided the legacy guides that help a team go down a similar path each year, but also help head off going down dead ends. If the mentors don't provide that, a team can get off track too often.
