Making Waves...from Wine

No, I don't mean filing the Unterzee with the essence of mushroom, though if someday I am able to, I would certainly attempt to do so.
Greetings, Fallen Londoners! With the change in the way Making Waves (MW) and Notability affects each other, as long as you are able to keep your MW higher than your Notability, your Notability remains intact. This is a little scheme that I am currently using to get 5 Notability points.
Step 1: Head to Veilgarden. Dealing with Your Crowd Of Admirers under Unfinished Business gives you a random amount of Greyfields 1879, usually between 300-800 for me. This first step costs 5 actions. To continue, we need at least 650 bottles of wine.
Step 2: Enter Veilgarden's honey-dens, and turn the wine into honey. This gives you 40 drops of honey for 50 bottles of wine and gives 1CP of MW. To continue, we need at least 500 drops of prisoner's honey. This step will take at least 13 actions.
Step 3: Convert the Prisoner's Honey into Romantic Notions. This step takes 1 action, and gives you 105 Romantic Notions for the 500 Prisoner’s Honey. No MW CP is earned in this step.
Step 4: Convert the Romantic Notions into Visions of the Surface. This takes 1 action, converts 50 Romantic Notions into 10 VotS, gives 2 CP of MW, and might give you other items, if you’re fortunate. I assume that the conversion of 500 Romantic Notions will give you 20 CP of MW.
Step 5 (optional): Convert VotS into Touching Love Stories. 50 VotS into 10 TLS, and 2CP of MW. You might get 100 Greyfields 1879, if you’re lucky.
In summary, this cycle takes 21 to 26 actions and gives you 15 CP of MW. Thank you for taking your time to read this post!

Converting those extraordinary implications to uncanny incanabulums gives MWs too, although the wikia doesn't say how much. I got Making Waves +15 CP from an unlucky result, and apparently it's a range of 1-20. So it seems likely that getting a fortunate result would give more, or at least a higher average.
And for any darlings of the Ambassador's ball I'd like to recommend An invitation to dinner on the Park and Palace: Society card, as it seems to have been upgraded from +2 CP to +5 CP of Making Waves.
