I like this as an explanation for babblers, people who stumble on simulacrum level 3 but are clueless and thus are totally disconnected from the original reasons for all these necessary coordination points. They’ve never seen a stag or rabbit but know that saying “stag!” emphatically to people gets agreement. This happens intergenerationally as parents forget to alert their children to the actual reasons for things. Having observed this happen with millenials, I am scared of what we are all collectively missing because older generations literally just forgot to tell us.
