Comment on The Feedback Fallacy

Comments

Feedback is dangerous for many reasons, but mostly because the signal/noise ratio is mediocre.

The problem with noisy feedback is the instability of the closed-loop system, and it can quickly become erratic and ultimately counter-productive.

Thus, we should only use feedback when the signal is clear and loud, mostly at the extremes, when performance is outstanding or catastrophic.
