> The value is that the developer doesn’t reasonably have the context

Sorry, that English doesn't make sense to me. The value is that... the developer doesn't have context? How is not having context a value?

Maybe you meant "the reason"? But then that doesn't answer the question what the value is.

The person I replied to asked what the business value was, so I explained that the [business] value comes from having a dedicated person who understands the context in which the issue is being worked.
Sorry, still don't understand.

Are you saying that without communicating progress there is no person who understands the context in which the issue is being worked in?

That doesn't make sense to me and seems to be totally orthogonal to any communication of progress.

So do you have a problem understanding or do you disagree?
For now what you are saying does not really make any sense, so I can't really disagree...
I’m honestly not a fan of how you’re framing this as a problem I’ve caused, so I think I’m going to bow out. Have a good rest of your day!
