I don't know why this is downvoted so much without an explanation. The problem from the interaction with sub-agents is real even if already known, but G0W51 may not know that.

I suspect because the Big Wall Of Text writing style is offputting. Perhaps, more specifically, because it's annoying to slog one's way through a Big Wall Of Text without an exciting new insight or something as payoff.

(I didn't downvote it. I'm just speculating.)
