Description
Currently, we filter out orchestrators higher than the broadcaster's maximum price. However, there may still be orchestrators within that set which offer a significant cost savings relative to others.
We should offer options to take pricing and other economic factors into consideration when selecting Os, on top of latency. These factors may involve: the price per pixel, the ticket EV, the face value. The approach for doing this should be determined before starting any implementation.

Contributor guide
Research direction
Start by reviewing the related latency-based O selection issue, #938, and the current orchestrator selection behavior described here. First define how price per pixel, ticket EV, face value, and latency should be weighed; done means an agreed approach is documented before implementation begins.
