Oldie-but-goodie.

Operating tempo is just one among many variables you can tune in creating an effective OODA configuration, and depending on the situation, the right tempo might actually be very slow. This is reflected in the interestingly paradoxical special-forces dictum: slow is smooth, smooth is fast. If you're operating at the right tempo, rather than the fastest possible, you will make faster progress overall. I like to think of it as finding semantic resonance with the environment. Product-market-fit generalized to behavior-environment fit.

Though it is not immediately apparent from the canonical diagram, the greatest strength of the OODA language is that it assumes an adversary. This does not mean it is a "wartime" construct useful only when there is an explicit adversary. It is useful for modeling any kind of non-aligned intentions in a situation.
