On a slightly different note, I am using Fibonacci backoff for a couple of things here and there and (subjectively) finding it a bit nicer than the standard 2x exponential backoff. I have it on a system that waits for a few days to raise an alert on missing data and I find the alerts on a cadence of 1, 2, 3, 5, 8... days are a bit tighter but still not overwhelming.
