Good idea ... but is this easy or difficult to do?

For a single function, is it enough to divide by 4 and
then multiply by the new value?

An advice could be used for a new function but then it
might as well do it itself. Unless there are several
new functions who all need this!

For an old function a user-defined advice may be
risky: is the user aware of all entry points? also, it
might screw up interactiveness - here I might be wrong
tho because I never liked advices to begin with so
I have close to zero experience - just a hunch...
