While I do agree with the sentiment of reducing meetings and time spent planning, I don't believe that removing all scheduled communication and planning is a good answer. This approach is especially problematic for teams that are working more directly on rapidly changing business concerns. Communication, planning and analysis are quite important for teams with members who need regular guidance or teams with lots of distinct roles.

I think this has a lot to do with certain developers not knowing much about security and not wanting to go down the rabbit hole of potential threats and concerns. In my experience a lot of people from project managers to developers would just rather ignore things they don't really understand (especially if it's not causing an immediate problem).
I'm still undecided on using the CLI exclusively. Although I always use the command line for anything complex, I do feel like my editor of choice (VSCode) provides a fair amount of value with its simple file staging GUI. It also does a good job of showing diffs between versions in-editor.

I've been looking forward to this as well. A lot of developers underestimate the time it takes to build CMS and resource dashboards (even small ones).

Using the narrative of a common enemy to create temporary unity has been a common tactic historically. Improvements in technology and media visibility in recent history has simply changed the dynamic in how this narrative is delivered.
