> Because of this, there’s more deviation from what was planned and designed to what was shipped and there’s less alignment across teams, so it’s harder to coordinate feature development.

Asking as an outsider, won't shipping a lot of things in this environment lead to some suboptimal product state. I'm used to coordinate > build > learn > iterate > ship; which although slows down gross feature development, tends to prevent the 60-80% of experiments that don't work from getting launched.

Does removing meetings to optimize throughput of feature development not get us into some feature factory mindset? This isn't binary btw, but I think moves thinking more towards a build mindset vs a solve problem mindset.
