> It’s the ability to quickly share a document with a set of people that you want. In particular, it lets you do that while maintaining a single source of truth. It's equally easy to just email people a document. But then if you change the doc, they still have the old version. Maybe they forwarded it on to some other people you don't know about it after making some changes. The next thing you know, there are twenty versions of this file floating around all slightly different and everyone thinks they are on the same page.
