Ostroff arrives when the course needs someone who can price things. Week 8 is hers: redundancy as a purchase, with the overhead stated in bits rather than in good intentions. She returns in week 11 to explain what a provenance manifest actually asserts, and what it quietly omits.
Her standing objection to the rest of the course is that a beautifully argued preservation proposal with no costing is not a proposal.
