> Kasper Timm Hansen tweeted, back in August 2021, that DHH was credited for work Kasper did [3].

That tweet and its two self replies say:

>> If someone on your team isn't giving you full context, to the best of their ability and the situation, they're not collaborating; they're negotiating on their behalf using you and your expertise as leverage.

>> The experience feels like being unwittingly made to shoe shop for an elephant. They present you shoe after shoe, keeping you in the dark and thus draining you. Instead of just saying who they're shopping for, so you could say "oh an elephant doesn't need shoes at all"

>> It's about controlling you, so they get to crack the problem by themselves and get the accolades etc., as opposed to solving the problem through collaboration so you both win.

Is there more context needed to understand this? I would never have guessed just from those tweets that it is about a mis-crediting issue.
