There's also efficiency like "I picked up some extra screws at Home Depot because I wasn't sure if I had any at home".
Having ways to avoid an unanticipated repetition of a process, which would result in bunging up the works for dependent parts of the system, can make the entire flow more efficient. See also 'drum buffer rope' from constraint theory.
