Thanks for the insights and input Rafael.
Be well,
Eric
Hope this helps, even if only to communicate the idea to others.
Note that a SF link is driving "ALAP" task (ironically an ASAP task). Something is still missing as it is not deducting remaining buffer amount, manual adjustments can be error prone. To get full Dynamic Task Buffer functionality I believe you will need add-on software.

I believe in the application of Buffers but without the use of these Buffer Activities. I do not use Buffer Activities because their use fool computations of float, same as finish constraints I always had issues with. I prefer to target early for my end of job as well as for intermediate milestone dates without obstructing my view of CPM/PDM computations. How much early I target is my buffer, as simple as this.
Best regards,
Rafael
