That makes sense. We use a similar "work backwards from constraints" approach, but with portfolio rules instead of lender terms.

For us the closest analog to "deal-breaker variables" are things like: - max drawdown thresholds - concentration caps - volatility ceilings - event gating (earnings, macro events)

Those are the points where a normal investor violates their own process under stress, so we surface them as primary controls. Things like turnover or sector caps end up in “Advanced” for the same UX reason you mentioned.

Curious - did you iterate on how much to hide in Advanced vs surface by default, or did the term sheet mapping give you a clean partition from the start?
