A generals job is to generalize and elevate the key agents. The industrial idiot will cause more work, build in you into a corner, waste time, resources, people, lives, on counter productive missions and projects which distract from essential work, cause bottlenecks in any or all systems at once. Objectively bad processes run away with more power than deserved. An army of autonomous actors only works if you root out the problems and agents causing drift.
