Cwhit probably has this calculated and will have a more thorough opinion than mine if he's around, as I don't spreadsheet anything and go by eye-balling and experience.

This is pretty reasonable in terms of advice in the broad sense. Definitely matters where you are on the curve. Once you're in the "good" region obviously more numbers are good, but the differences between good pitchers is really so small especially in the pen that you probably won't notice much year in and year out.
OP had some good advice given on discord too, but wanted to follow up as well.
