This reminds of satisficers and metrics.
Customers want a good paint job on their new car. You buy equipment to measure paint quality. You get good at the metrics that the equipment produces. Then you find that your competitors have better looking paint even though you have a better score.
Keep your eye on the prize, and the prize is not the metrics.
