I'm going to dispute this.  Unless you already have an MFC log system in
place, waiting 24 hours costs mindshare and a slight amount of nerves WRT
forgetting.  No matter what, it costs attention on doing the MFC the next day.

The accumulated cost of this depends a lot on the personality of the person
that is to do the MFC.  For some, it is hardly a cost at all - for others, the
cost is high enough that they are reluctant to do changes that should be
MFCed.
