I tried, but the full diff has way too many changes to be readable. It's
worse than if you just page through update_excuses.html and look at the
items individually.

I could maybe make a diff of subsets of the yaml, if that would be
helpful. Perhaps even just a diff of the candidates, and then people can
manually go back and inspect why something does or does not migrate when
it didn't/did before.

Cheers,
