I'm clearly missing some critical detail about the relationships in
the Nova team. Don't the Nova+Placement contributors already have to
convince the Placement-only contributors what to prioritize working
on? Or are you saying that if they disagree that's fine because the
Nova+Placement contributors will get along just fine without the
Placement-only contributors helping them get it done?
