Junior staff learn by overhearing. A senior engineer mutters at a screen, someone two desks away picks up the reasoning, and nobody scheduled it. Remote work replaces those accidents with calendar invites. A manager who reads that trade and picks the office has decided how craft transfers inside that particular company. Firms differ. The choice weighs a real cost.
