I saw some sample where we can pass arguments to strategies such as LBAlpha and LBBeta values to compute communication cost. However, I am not sure if this values are used in other parts of code like in BaseLB or LBDBManager for instance.

If I used this parameters to modify the strategy module behavior (using integer numbers like 1,2 or 3), would I damage another part of code? Is there other way to do this?
