I agree motivational “beliefs” are useful tools, but swooping down like Spider-Man to rescue false beliefs by saying they weren’t intended to be true would be an instance of the no true Scotsman fallacy, and trying to rescue them by saying no motivational “beliefs” are intended to be true (in the context of NVC) would be unsupported.
Do note that I didn’t make either of those arguments. You still seem to be confusing me with someone who wishes to promote NVC.
(If I were such an advocate, I’d be a pretty bad one, since many of my statements to you have been both evaluative and judgmental. ;-) )
