arrange them by "nines" of availability (like 99.9%, 99.99%, etc). also consider changes to the app itself. can we run parallel, independent frontends, can we partition the database? heck, are we even doing retries with exponential backoff yet?

If you do, I don’t recommend telling them that you did it. Just bask.

I can't be the only one who occasionally logs into the coffee shop's router via a default password to bump their DHCP pool and drop their TTL a few dozen hours. something something white hat.
