Translation tax

Original excerpt

At the big company, that cost had a name nobody said out loud: alignment. Alignment, alignment, T&E, training. In the move between countries, it has a different name: documents, and then more documents. In AI projects, it has a name I only learned after joining CrewAI. The translation tax.
