I'm not trying to be snarky here, but would you rather lose a judge or two,
or lose the current officers if the tracking becomes too burdensome for
them?  If the proposal passed as written, I'd personally decide not put
the pre-case formatting work, and ais523 has made it clear that e won't.

And if you "allow such cases to be dismissed" by the Arbitor, expect a set
of meta-CFJs on whether those judgements should have been dismissed.  
Exactly the opposite of what you want.

To take care of the "cursory" case, that's why I suggest allowing a judge
to hand it to someone else, or dismiss it fairly quickly.  But it should
have that first hearing with the judge.
