Appreciate the clear steps. The dry-run tip in particular saved me from a mistake I would not have caught otherwise.

This deserves more votes. It is a small change with an outsized impact on day-to-day use.

Tried this on a staging copy first and it behaved exactly as described. Confident enough to roll it to production now.

Could you say more about how you measured the result? I want to try this but I am not sure what success would look like.

Great point. I had not considered the angle you raised in the second paragraph — it reframes the whole thing for me.
