Creativity
Having a public employee sitting at his desk and thinking, rather than producing some kind of meausurable output, may look bad from an accountability point of view, but is the only way known to humans to creative solutions and high quality.

Twitter is one more symptom of the culture war being fought right now between society's Engineers — smart, extroverted, optimistic people who believe technology can solve everything — and its Naturalists, equally smart people who tend to side with the private mind, in the sad, lonely beauty of its isolation.....Most Naturalists don't want to maintain control over the media or its message, as some Engineers and their marketing monkeys insist. But they do write to stay unavailable, to keep the world at bay until they have figured out what they think and what is true.
