I guess I’m trying to point out how a particular mindset limits people. If someone has already pre-judged something a particular way, then it’ll always be harder to communicate with them and they’ll need someone to explicitly spell out things they could have figured out for themselves.
Hmm. This seems a lot like strategizing on how to convince someone (get them into a mode where they can figure something out for themselves), rather than simply sharing information or insights (by showing what you think you have learned).
Probably appropriate sometimes, but if I notice it, it’ll bug me and I’ll be less inclined to listen.
