if it feels like "fluff" it is fluff imo. And that's something that most incompetent PMs suffer from.

The reason I think communication is very important is that limited or incorrect / stale information is a very big problem for medium-large organizations (the kind of organizations that have PMs). Many times, poor or lack of sufficient communication is the foundational reason for other issues that we see regarding seemingly always changing priorities, decisions being made out of nowhere, etc.
It's all about aligning incentives. You need to reward PMs for getting stuff done, rather than looking busy.
