Meetings can be useful, but I suppose in that sense more people don't hold meetings. They hold gatherings which allow for responsibility to be diffused across multiple individuals. They hold sessions with no preparation, where no one is sure who is allowed to speak, or what topics are acceptable for a meeting. They don't think about their audience, and prioritize style over substance.
