- Performance Considerations: Will it introduce a noticeable performance overhead?
- Resource Constraints: Memory, CPU, GPU usage if applied.
- Unit Tests: Which parts of the logic will have unit tests?
- Integration/E2E Tests: Will you verify the feature in a running environment?
- Negative Tests: Handling misconfigurations, invalid flags, or zero/negative tolerance.
List any potential downsides, e.g., added complexity, performance overhead, or user confusion.
