 /// Safety requirements:
 /// - Can only succeed if the signer is the current program admin.
 /// - Can only succeed if the provided treasury is valid.
+///
+/// Discussion:
+/// - The admin authority only has one lever of power: the ability to adjust the global 
+///   mining difficulty. If the difficulty is too easy, miners will find hashes very quickly
+///   and the bottleneck for throughput shifts from local compute to Solana bandwidth. In essence,
+///   if the Ore token has value and difficulty is low, mining becomes an incentivized stress
+///   test for the Solana network. 
+/// - At the same time, if difficulty is too hard, miners will have to wait very long periods
+///   of time between finding valid hashes. This will bias rewards to well-resourced miners 
+///   with large compute operations. Keeping a low difficulty ensures casual miners can 
+///   consistently earn rewards and undercuts some of the advantage of larger players.
+/// - Ultimately admin authority should be delegated to a governance mechanism – either 
+///   democratic or futarchic – to ensure difficulty is kept at a value that represents the 
+///   interests of ecosystem paricipants.
