Step 1: Pick a thing any tech company needs: design, security, ethics, code quality, etc.
Step 2: Create a “team” responsible for implementing the thing in a vacuum from other developers.
Step 3: Observe the “team” become the nag: ethics nag, security nag, code quality nag.
Step 4: Conclude that developers need to be broadly empowered and expected to create holistic quality by growing as individuals and as members of organizations, because nag teams are a road to nowhere.
