I tried to understand how you went from what I said to this, but I
couldn’t. While you used the same keywords I had in my original
statement, you wrote something that is quite unrelated to what I said.

The board does not make people do anything, so it would be difficult
for it to force a structure or hierarchy. There already is a structure
in place and I really can’t see where you’re going with this.

How is that different from the current teams we have?
