      Something grinds our gears. And that something is:    Generic conversations about accountants having to do advisory, from people who've never done it.    It comes from this idea that because advanced use of technology means that it takes a lower amount of time to do traditional compliance work. It stems from a line Xero used to tout, 'Compliance is dead, you have to do advisory'.    What's wrong with the way advisory is being spoken about?
