66A mid-sized company uses Salesforce for sales and service. They have implemented Einstein Prediction Builder on a custom object 'Support_Ticket__c' to predict whether a ticket will be escalated (field: 'Escalated__c' Boolean). The model was trained with 10,000 records and 15 fields including 'Subject', 'Description_Summary__c', 'Priority__c', 'Hours_to_Resolution__c', and others. After deployment, the model's precision for escalated tickets is only 30%, while recall is 80%. The business finds too many false positives. The admin notices that the 'Priority__c' field has many missing values (60% null) and that the field 'Is_Critical__c' (a formula field) was included though it flags tickets as critical only rarely. The data spans 12 months but the last 3 months have a significantly higher escalation rate due to a product bug that has since been fixed. Which course of action will most likely improve the model's precision without harming recall?
