I feel like asking for different team members might not solve the underlying issue. It’s more about communication and clarity in the project scope, right?

This reminds me of a similar practice question where we had to address scope creep. I think adding another work package could just complicate things more.

I’m not sure if refusing the submittal is the best move. Maybe starting over would be more effective, but it feels harsh to include it in performance reviews.
