Francesco, this is a fantastic piece! I particularly appreciate how you've broken down the complexities of data sharing into tangible scenarios. It's easy to get lost in the theoretical aspects of data architecture, but your guide brings it down to earth, showing how these concepts play out in real organizations.

Your point about data governance needing to be 'active and operational' really resonates. Too often, governance becomes a box-ticking exercise, disconnected from the actual work. Making metadata part of the operational flow is key, as you say.

The scenario around 'Fact-Based Prototyping' is spot on. The HiPPO effect is a real challenge, and grounding prototyping in evidence is crucial for avoiding wasted effort. I like how you frame the marketplace as an 'observational layer,' helping teams make informed decisions based on real usage data.
