Because if you take a decision and the decision is no, and then you can appeal in a way, you know, to try to negotiate, to make it yes, like every companies do, you know, and then you add up time, you add up those ad hoc meetings, or let's do another meeting to really look at it and then do another one.

And there are some false positives. There are definitely some false positives where we may say yes and it should have been a no, and we said no and it should have been a yes. So I'm not saying it's perfect. It's not perfect at all. But at least we move a lot faster. And yes, there are some costs in terms of false positives, but it's a lot more powerful.

Yeah, because you don't add up time. You go quicker. Do you not lose creativity? I don't think creativity is necessarily... No, because you iterate so much, you create more, because you do more.
