Mechanism: attrition + do not backfill. No layoffs. Savings begin immediately as positions go unfilled. Target range is 20–22 depending on non-discretionary shrinkage trend. 20 is the operational floor — each callout at that level = 5% of team offline.

Sunday contacts (~143/day) should route to async chat/email. Communicate change to customers 30 days prior.

Watch: non-discretionary shrinkage rate — expect small uptick as team gets leaner.
