> it would help if they did because the project fails after a year due to the overwhelming burden of the disorganized legacy It's always someone else's fault with you. It's always someone else's goof. It's a mystery why no one listens to you. Over a full year of disorganization where you are a powerless contributor and a non-lazy victim and those unfair tyrants deserve to crumple and fail at the end of it? I'm not buying what you're selling, hyperbole or not. To answer my own questions: There is no mechanism to self-check your cognition for viability. Only other people (the team) can check your ideas in the moment with agreed-upon evidence/track record as a long-term proof. Because you need others to validate your strategies and designs, which are likely flawed, you need to work harmoniously with others. Therefore, you need to ingratiate yourself to them and respect them so you can influence them and you'll eventually get your way with the team if you're any good. It's called being a team player.
