I actually fully understand this situation. If you build stuff you want to reduce communication channels and keep it lean, otherwise you get a lot of distraction about mostly superficial and insubstantial matters. Important things will happen there too, of course, but you prefer to have a controlled ways of communication (e.g. something that works in your team). Sometimes it’s good to shorten some communication paths and directly reach relevant people. But in the longer term you want to avoid it. Otherwise you will have your devs being contacted from other different people and it will create a lot of communication mess. You want to secure your people from such noisy communication.
