Which is better? No communication or miscommunication? I think you should include the GAME CHANGER.... because nothing is constant but change... some people aren't in a competitive workspace (i.e. professional collaborators, etc.) my friend says he comes to work to earn money so he can pay the rent and eat, so he doesn't consider it a game... but he works for a game company and they are really competitive internally.
