We have a wonderful Slack channel called #why which is filled with questions like "why do we do <thing>" or "does anyone remember why we do <thing>"

1. It's kinda helpful when you scale up staff by 100% in approximately one year

2. Even the CEO asks why questions!

3. At year 6 or so of a startup there are lots of decisions to be reconsidered

What's the typical sequence of steps if (a) no one volunteers why (presumably because no one knows) (b) when ~half the people think it's obviously self-explanatory and the other ~half think there's no good reason?
