"trade-off" is the *noun*
http://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/trade%20off
(not sure that gloss is quite apt, though)
v. trade off
1 US —used to describe a situation in which one person does something, then another person does it, and so on <When you get tired of driving, I'll trade off with you.> <They trade off babysitting each other's kids.>
2 : to give up (something that one wants) in order to have something else —usually + for <The car's designers traded off some power for greater fuel efficiency.>

ii had "trade-off" and Mr K decided that could become "to trade-off".
