Any cutoff is arbitrary. Why not $225k? Or $300k? Maybe $250k is ridiculous, and it should be $175k? I'm sure they didn't pick that number out of a hat, but I'm equally sure there is no basis to establish $250k as the optimal cutoff.
All you have to do is budget it out. See my post above. It becomes abundantly clear that $250K is a perfect cutoff.
