I’m still amazed by the newer types of velcro which seem super strong and yet the hooks are microscopic and don’t feel scratchy at all. As seen on Apple watch straps or disposable nappies.

Yep. Even maintaining an internal API to exchange data between 2 of your own products is hard enough and can slow things down with the need to co-ordinate releases.

To some extent, interoperability via standards is also incompatible with agile, as it’s much slower to make changes?

Which is probably fine for relatively simple, well-defined domains like banking, but much harder for nebulous ever-changing domains like health?
