Oh nooooooo sincerity bad. Got it.

(Counterexample: "Sorry, Baby", which literally just came out.)

what if that one person quits suddenly because they're not getting paid enough, wants to move to a different country, etc?

For example, if you ask a team "can you get this feature in", likely they will come back at you a few weeks later.

feature not a bug etc. they should already have and know their priorities and if yours doesn't trump theirs, there's no reason you should get a concrete answer.

that does work in smaller places, but there are many reasons and many books about exactly why this does not scale or work at most organizations.

I'm being a bit vague, but all I can say is that I've seen this before, and I'll know it when I see it again.

being vague does not work when talking about organizational design so telling people that they don't need to build teams around systems is a bit irresponsible
