I was always happy with that rule, since it forces humans to be integral parts of feedback systems involved.
Now if only we could build a human which (who?) passed through all data unmodified and in real time... We need a better human...
Last year, we planned and began construction of an audio feedback system for the command team. We never had a chance to finish it, but I will post diagrams et al. as soon as I find them.
