@psamolysov, thanks for working on this.

Possible (and most likely recommended, if feasible) usage outside of Legal: Bail out due to cost and bail out before LV driver code hits legal (but after LV's runOnFunction() starts).
If we include those usage, emitting the message through "Legal" utility (be it member function or a utility function residing in Legal code) looks odd. Should be more like a LV level
utility. Else, what @rengolin says makes sense.

I think this is already a nice improvement. I'm fine for this patch landing as a local static function and then think about promoting this idea further into a LV level utility separately.
