Impact analysis
Basically zero cost to you — just a few minutes of running the tap, and maybe skip doing laundry while the water's discolored.
Everyone on city water benefits — flushing clears out sediment and keeps the system running clean for the whole year.
Nobody's really harmed, though anyone doing laundry or filling a pool right when the water turns discolored could get a rude surprise.
