Oh I have no doubt it's an excellent tool for knowledge sharing. So are mailing lists (nobody reads email) and internal wikis (evergreen fist fight to get someone, anyone, to update). Despite best intentions knowledge sharing regimes are little more than well-intentioned pestering with irrelevant information that is absolutely purged from headspace during any number of daily/weekly/quarterly context switches. As I said, mediocre results.

You're free to believe whatever you want, but again, this is one of the few things that we actually empirically know to be working.
