Can you describe exactly how they are unavoidable? Specifically I wonder what constraints this puts on them. Looked at from the aspect of engineering intelligence I would assume it would depend on sensor capabilities, i.e. that machines would primarily communicate about what they can both see. But that doesn't account for humans who communicate a lot about what they feel.
