I feel this is a very hard balancing act. I worked for a small team where all members would constantly think "out loud" in a public channel. It felt very nice for everyone involved, no one would criticize and the discourse was at a very pleasing level. Then, someone joined our team, that while smart, has a very intimidating way of stating his opinion. It took maybe two weeks since this person became active on the channel for private conversations to start popping up.
