Chicken or Egg?
I tend to think updating this message is outside of the scope of
your series, but you would not get wider adoption (hence more guinea
pigs that 'have used it for a significant time') unless you
advertise it, and I agree with Torsten that this is the message that
matters most--it is shown when we know we spent a lot of time on
what UC is meant to speed up and no other time.
