When we do an activity like playing a game like tag we have one person be the tagger. If we want to make the game faster we could have more than one tagger. That way we can tag more people and chase them better. But not we have two people we have to communicate with on how we are going to tag and while this could be better it also creates new problems we have to solve in how to tag the most amount of people.
