Linguistic nit: that's not what cargo cult means. Cargo cult refers to doing things that don't in themselves do anything, just because XYZ did them, in the mist

Linguistic nit: that's not what cargo cult means. Cargo cult refers to doing things that don't in themselves do anything, just because XYZ did them, in the mistaken belief that "showing signs of XYZ-ness" will lead to the same results that XYZ sees/produces. Copying big-name-here's practice of localizing based on IP is not that. Copying "the way they comment the start of every file" would be. Or "using the same pep talk to the full company" would be. Actually using an approach that has both code that actually does something, and has an immediate and measurable effect on the user, isn't.
