I dunno, I'm not totally sold... Often times I've worked with people who I pretty much thought were bad engineers and they were the most boisterous. I'm not saying being boisterous in itself is bad, but it's like it was there primary weapon to make EVERYTHING an issue.

Healthy debate is good, but... I dunno. I hate giving bad engineers more ammo to act crazy.

I believe that the article was talking about disagreement, critique, and debate. Being "noisy" and "boisterous" sounds like something else entirely. Productive debate ought to be calm, civil, rational, and without inflated egos.
