Thinking about the use of appearance of effort applied/resources used as a metric for goal achieved. So obviously there's Goodhart problems with optimizing on effort applied, rewarding people for looking like they worked hard instead of actually getting things done.
For extra fun, we use it to lie to ourselves. "Yeah I really want to be better, look at all this effort I put in." No actual change, you subconsciously think that changing strategies won't work but that the appearance of trying is useful.
