Yep! It's all about the context of the application. Some applications can get away with 20% coverage, some might require 80%. After that, we just want to monitor whether or not coverage is decreasing or increasing.

It's a little silly to decree that a small project that's currently running fine, but sitting at 20% coverage, needs an all hands on deck initiative to up the coverage to some arbitrary number.
