I don't really have an answer for you other than a "hallway comment", that it sounds like a good thing which I would test with a simulator, if I had one. I've been intrigued by (but really not looked much into) https://slurm.schedmd.com/SLUG23/LANL-Batsim-SLUG23.pdf

I could obviously let the test run for an hour to verify the lower priority job was never preempted...but that's not really feasible.

Why not? Isn't it going to take longer than an hour to wait for responses to this post? Also, you could set up the minimum time to a much smaller value, so it won't take as long to test.
