Loved this. Two great arguments for managers:
* systems thinking points to managers as focus points for communication, accountability and more. If you don't have them, you still need the work they do so it gets done in a hidden, 'on the edges' way.
* most everybody else does this, so it's a boring technology.

at one point Steve jobs would have been healthier if Steve jobs didn't make decisions about Steve jobs.
As with an LLM, this is a strategy that can work in some contexts, but does not represent general intelligence.
