Thats only the case if the purpose of the meeting is something that can be
solved with a status report. For other issues it is useful to have a
synchronous meeting. The much higher bandwidth allows decisions to be made
faster and ideas communicated more effectively (at least if everyone comes
with at least a basic overview of agenda items).

Cheers,
