How do you do this without revealing salary information?

Avg corp salary, not individual :-) - at the time I used Glassdoor data. (Or maybe I even just ballparked it?)

Truth be told, it gets so expensive so fast, even with the entry level salary. Especially once you're over 2 participants. Really makes you think - would I pay this much for what I'm trying to solve here? And yes, it's not perfect, in fact, nothing is truly this reductive, but in lieu of a better metric...

I think this is the potential subtle failure in this thought - it shouldn’t be if you would pay, it should be if the company would pay.

And people will often dramatically under-estimate what a company will pay for something, particularly if it is a sunk-cost and not an ‘actual’ cost they will immediately realise.
