If the poster is a point-haired-middle-manager archetype, maybe. More often though, it’s very useful for a manager or team leader to ensure that everyone on the team has a common base of knowledge, concepts and terminology. That way the team members can unambiguously understand jargon (at-least-once), communicate with high bandwidth (“let’s switch RMQ queue X to at-most-once mode, the persistent audit FIFO will handle missed messages”). Even if the team members disagree, at least everyone knows what the disagreement is about. The shared vocabulary is very useful.
