Almost finished my xpay series: its had a series of epic side quests! In particular, yesterday, adding the idea of "biases" to layers, so you can favor/disfavor particular channels for routing. This is easy: the hard part is deciding how to scale it for real use.
I ended up deciding on a scale from -100 (avoid) to +100 (awesome) with useful values generally being 1 to 10. This is actually an exponential factor underneath, with +/-100 making the score 30x better or worse, which is more than enough to override everything else.
Last step is layer persistence: you want to keep that information you learned across restarts.
In addition, I'm release captain for this release, *and* I have to clean up my Script Restoration code for my OP_NEXT presentation next weekend (and write my talk).
I anticipate the 24.11 CLN release may be delayed :(
