Are you entering into a sub function of the original x/y assessment here? As in if X is done, Y, but Y is a function in itself of assessing the optimal reward for X?

If it's still important to add a reward of Y (in addition to the personal value of having completed X), you probably need to substitute with something novel and maintain the understanding that it is a reward for X (even if not the originally scoped one).
