In complexity you don't want more eyes on the ball all coordinating and converging, you want more eyes looking out around you to watch for surprising things before they hit you.

If you do the former, you get a bunch of kindergartners playing soccer, swarming the ball, making nothing coherent happen.

If you do the latter, only the core group focuses on execution and alignment; the others provide disconfirming evidence to help the group survive.

The latter is more like dodgeball than soccer.
