Not a hit piece on AC, rather about how non coordinated a thorough policy change can have adversarial effect.

Also, yes AC is essential, but it is on track to consuming so much electricity that is has to be pushed in the right direction to not become a new problem replacing the old.

In startups with less than 50 people (and I am being generous on the number), everyone talks to everyone all the time, so there is no need for these moments to extract key info to fix/improve situations, identify topics to push, ...
