Exactly my concerns wrt putting too many checks into 'medium'.
Is there any way to know in advance the percentage of connections (by
protocol, if possible) that will trigger any of those checks? If so,
we could have some quantitative measure of when the "fatigue" might
strike, and decide accordingly. Failing that, I guess the only way
would be to let users complain...
