The whole point is that coordination looks different at different scales.
So, I think I was looking at this through a nonstandard frame (Maybe more nonstandard than I thought). There are two different sets of numbers in this post:
— 4.3 million words worth of nuance
— 200,000 words of nuance
— 50,000 words
— 1 blogpost (1-2k words)
— 4 words
And separately:
— 1-4 people
— 10 people
— 100 people
— 1000 people
— 10,000 people+
While I’m not very confident about any of the numbers, I am more confident in the first set of numbers than the second set.
If I look out into the world, I see clear failures (and successes) of communication strategies that cluster around different strata of communication bandwidth. And in particular, there is clearly some point at which the bandwidth collapses to 3-6 words.
