Hmm. I guess I'm trying to suggest that the format of the daily stand up, or even something about the development pipeline in these situations, are leading people to forget what they are doing day-to-day. If I were on a team where people were forgetting regularly, I'd tune the process. I find explanations like "I haven't prepared" or "There is something inherent to me" not to be satisfying. As a lead, I'd find it quite alarming, really. I mean, some people have medical conditions, and that's fine as an explanation, but as a routine? No. Something isn't going well. And, the explanation is almost certainly not "devs are at fault". Burnout is a possibility.
