Yeah, a team is an attempt to maximize the efficient use of available resources. It's something inherently capitalistic (a group leveraging their joint labor and the means of production, to increase productivity, in the hope of eventually increasing profits).

A movement is just people imitating the behavior of someone prominent and paying them homage, in the hopes that some good things will spring out in return.

I've compared it to a cargo cult. If you write in ALL CAPS or cheer the appropriate OpenSats post, and jump through their hoops, the lightning gods will make Bitcoin rain down on you. And that really does work, so it'll just stay that way, forever. Only a few oddballs, like us, will even try to do their own thing.

Teams, tend to be self-directed and have their own ideas of what they want to do or where they want to take their projects. They will resist submission because they have their own internal leadership.

There are no teams in a cargo cult.

I guess the word "leader" comes with a lot of baggage...

Well, the sinister moment would be if someone came and stood next to them all and _danced differently_.

They left that part out. 😂 Too gruesome.
