This is not a rare situation by any means. It’s a topic I’d like to see addressed at gatherings such as “KiCon”. I’d like to know how others have dealt with the problem - whether their solution is a good one, only mediocre, or still problematical, I suspect everybody would benefit from hearing and discussing the ideas.
The ancient fable about money and ideas applies:
If I have a dollar, and you have a dollar, and we exchange dollars, then we simply preserve the status quo and neither of us gains anything. But if I have an idea, and you have an idea, and we exchange ideas, then we are both enriched by having two ideas.
