In order for groups to function, the people that make them up have to operate in a sufficiently shared reality. The best one of those to operate in is, of course, actual reality. The more you deviate from that, the less cohesive your organization is.

    Sure, but the inherent problem is that everyone thinks they’re in “actual reality”. Very few people believe that they have an artificial world view. Thus the problem that you have to bring people into the discussion is that you need to convince them that their interpretation of reality is wrong, which humans are demonstrably bad at doing, and convince them that your reality is the correct one. Then you can begin the discussion on compromise. Much easier said than done
