I was surprised by the volume of the handbook material that applies to the role of CEO shadow. To me it implied a high level of formality and expectation of rigid adherence. Then I found this:

> CEO shadows label the handbook MRs they create with the ceo-shadow label. It's a point of competition between CEO shadows to try to best the previous shadows' number of merge requests.

I am no longer surprised by the length of this section of the handbook.
