This paper explores the prevalent myths surrounding standardization and transparency in digital communication. It argues that assumptions of a 'changed world' and the notion that issues are merely technical can hinder effective communication among developers, managers, and practitioners. By addressing these myths, stakeholders can foster trust and collaboration. The discussion highlights the importance of pragmatic solutions over abstract ideals, emphasizing the need for effective communication to pool uncertainty and avoid reinventing the wheel.
