You can’t manage it unless you can measure it!
While in theory, this might have merit, but there is no way the data will help make everyone happy.
I don’t play tennis, but I golf - so spend more money on golf and turn the tennis courts into putting greens.
Why is there water volleyball at the sports pool when I want to swim laps?

The last time I did woodworking was in 7th grade shop class - I have no interest in the wood shop, but there are a lot of villagers who do - to me, it’s a give and take.
