Although this traditional approach succeeds when the DoFs are uncoupled, it fails at capturing key features of the field's coherence if the DOFs are indeed correlated -- a situation that arises often. By viewing coherence as a `resource' that can be shared among the DoFs, it becomes possible to convert the entropy associated with the fluctuations in one DoF to another DoF that is initially fluctuation-free.
