In physics, efficiency is the measure of how effectively a system converts input energy into useful output.

Efficiency, is NOT speed. Nor, it is acceleration. It is IMPACT, in relation to a pre-defined objective.

Wheather you move fast and break things (like Zuckerberg), or, move slow and incinerate things (like Ratan Tata) - the method or style, itself, is a means.

This is precisely why labour-driven businesses, are inherently unsclable.

This is also a call for discernment.

For everything hallucinates. Human-made propositions. AI-generated propositions. Numbers. Especially numbers. And even more especially, numbers presented in a beautifully formatted spreadsheet or a slideshow.

The post-modern mind-virus has infilitrated and corrupted every, once-agreed-upon, measure of value. Confusing TRUTH with narrative.

Yet, there is an objective truth. And the degree to which objective truths are uncovered and acted upon, determine the impact of a product.

A better hypothesis would be that the maturity of a system is a greater predictor of efficiency, than the speed, or agility, of its processes. This is plausibly the reason why government is, more often than not, the only enterprise with a monopoly on violence. And also the reason, why most new age fin tech start ups fail.
