I feel like the Cheese Greatest reload window is something a player can consistently manage, but takes you from “play forever” into “the house will eventually win”. Missing a couple of reloads after resuming was enough to derail a 2M+ run. Hard to say it’s worth the risk if I’m just chasing points. Also, a bunch of cheesy achievements to chase or somethings to unlock with points would be amazing.
Here are a few power-up ideas:
Git Gouda or Jack Wick: some kind of growing the customer points multiplier for every 10 (or whatever number makes more sense) consecutive perfect reloads you have currently comboed when you’re in Cheese Greatest.
Cheese Wax Wings: combo your next 100 customers and get 2x their points, -3x those points if you don’t. Inspired by taking Cheese Greatest too lightly and getting humbled 😅
Jean Parmesan: Karen has a chance to be so happy after a perfect grind that she gushes to your manager. Complete the direction sequence for double points? Maybe you just have to crank some ridiculous amount of cheese instead of the mini game? I’m mostly just want to reference this bit in some way:

Cheddar luck next time: forgive one mini game that will get you fired otherwise. Helpful if you up the stakes on Karen or the clown.
Modifiers with no name:
Bonus points for pressing b on the first frame or 2 that qualifies as perfect
Bonus points for, but rising score quota for the shift or you’re fired
More varied timing on the cow mini game in exchange for bonus points for completing it successfully
Clown mini game always triggers
