ockhams-feature-pruning

Prune accumulated complexity from a product — features, options, settings, code paths that no longer earn their place. Use when auditing a mature product, reducing surface area, simplifying complex workflows, or evaluating whether to remove low-usage features. Pruning is harder than adding because users (often a small but vocal minority) resist removal even when usage data justifies it. The skill is identifying what to prune, deciding how, and managing the transition.
