I'll just reiterate what I said above, because I feel there's more to the problem at hand than "number of customer interactions":

> Not every problem is well suited to being broken up into single day chunks of work. Not every developer can maintain a healthy relationship to their work with that level of micromanagement. There is a huge amount of anecdotal evidence about this if you read any thread about developer burnout, or modern day scrum and agile. You mention the Agile Manifesto, but seem to forget that one of the primary points is "individuals and interactions over processes and tools".

I don't plan to continue the conversation at this point, because it's not productive.




You began this conversation saying that interactions are bad, and end with saying they're good, so I will take that win as I can get it! :D
