The "your room vs. the living room" model is clean and usable. What makes it work is the commit as the unit of accountability not "I mentioned this in a meeting" but "I wrote it down where the system can find it." That distinction matters more than the tool choice.
The forcing function observation is the sharpest thing here: you can't write a coherent positioning.md if you haven't actually decided your positioning. AI just makes the ambiguity impossible to paper over. The misalignment was always there, now it has nowhere to hide.
I write about production AI systems and distributed backends, the infra layer where undocumented context shows up as retrieval failures. Worth a subscribe here too.

Yup, AI is calling again for what should be normal: making things explicit. Thx for involvement and comment. Followed back.
