Complexity is not as democratizable as the industry likes to believe. - an org-chart team of 100 will perform worse than a tightly knit team of 10 - a tightly knit team of 10 will perform worse if tangible results are expected on regular intervals of the choosing of managers (e.g., weekly, monthly, take your pick) as opposed to treating the software project as a computer science research project spanning a year or more. - a tightly knit team of 10 working on a software research project spanning a year or more will perform worse if expected to succeed in their first attempt as opposed to allowing them to fail one or more times and change directions, maybe even starting from scratch every time.
