I was talking about (partial or full) elision of trailing consonants - so e.g. where the 'g' in 'trailing' gets swallowed. The flapping concept seems to be primarily about 't' and 'd' sounds mid-word, although with it affecting trailing consonants intra-phrase in some cases. Fair point that either could apply to AgentHub mind, I was going from pronouncing it as two words and swallowing the 't' as being likely to cause 'asian hub' to be heard, flapping it gets me something more like 'asian dub.' (I -think- my accent elides more than it flaps, but given I can range from broad lancashire through to BBC English depending on context 'which accent' is an open question; also I may have completely misunderstood something)
