tbh, i‘m afraid that all this is rather part of a „darn, our communication is broken. let‘s find a tool to fix it. ah, new cool tool. everything will be fine ... darn, our communication ... (repeat)“ cycle. you always need new tools to feed this cycle of futility ... ;)

HEY is not a different channel tho, but just a different way to dealing with the channel. The scepticism is understandable. But relates a lot to any other. This mixer is mixing better than before. This packet manager is more convenient before. This web framework removes hazzle

So of course you’re right that unless you’re switching to Hey (instead of adding it), you won’t gain anything. But I’d argue *that’s* semantics.
