Nice. Goodhart's Law implies that an explicit metric will be gamed in a manner different from the original intent. Org types will find a way to game the metric for survival purposes. They can now justify actions by objectively demonstrating how metric is achieved.

I think it links most obviously via the connection to principle agent problems in general. Orgs are controlled by principles whose goal ISN'T org survival. However, the typical solution method for P-A involves metrics to align incentives, usually conditional on org survival.
