Honestly the constant jump cut style of editing feels so unnatural to me... I'd rather watch someone takes pauses and not be taken out of the moment.... I'm sure this has applications particularly in advertising/marketing but it's not without outs issues.
I don't think that's an accurate characterization of the fork.
Your criticism is fair. However "obedient" isn't always what an engineering organization needs. Many times, I wish that our Indian contract workers, would speak out when they see something wrong, about process, quality, or business requests. I'm not sure if it's a cultural thing or what, but it seems they are more hesitant to speak out. It has been my anecdotal observation that our US-born hires are way quicker to say something to management if they feel something is wrong.
I mean no disrespect, by this observation.
