This is what I'm excited about--enabling a team to use the most powerful tools that address their own problems, rather than whichever Blub is approachable enough for the entire staff.

Say you run a factory, and everyone needs a hammer. When there's only two teams, two kinds of hammer is fine. But fast forward to 10 teams. Can you always get all of those hammers when you need them? What if team #3 needs extra support? You need to find a new engineer who knows hammer #3, or take an engineer off of team #6 and train them on how to use hammer #3. And if all the hammers need a slight modification specific to that company, you need to make 10 different modifications. And how will all the teams benefit from shared hammer tips-n-tricks if they all use different hammers? There's a lot more overhead than you think at first.
