> I don't usually coax specifications from teammates. I coax them from Product people or customers and while it's not really the most fun sometimes, personally, I do find joy in the fact that I am delivering something that helps the customer.

It's when you're dependent on a service and there's no documentation. Even if you can read the code (and if you can't, you probably should learn), it's better to ask the person that worked on it (instead of making too many assumptions). And that's when the coaxing comes into play.
