Hmm, this is interesting but I come away with the feeling that there is just too much of a flaw here. I think the main issue is that there is no scale on the Y-axis. And ultimately the goal would be to minimize the area below the curve, right? So there has to be some scale on the Y-axis. You could front-load the worry or you could spread it out over time. Either way is probably fine if the total area is the same.
