Encouraging everyone to invest any excess competitive passion into looking outward, rather than inward, remains my 2¢

That's actually my point. I am not sure that we are making this easily accessible with that deadline. So even if we can inspire we are inspiring people to do something hard and in the process we are raising the cost to them.
However we are often not raising the costs (consider all the various kinds of cost) in the same way for everyone. Pardon me for saying but I see no study that shows what the impact of this deadline is. Shouldn't that be the barometer: an act of scientific understanding?
I mean I understand the value of our leaders here, but then again no organization can run on shear good will alone.
