I meant when interfacing with governments/other organizations/etc., and plausibly at later stages, when the project may require “normal” software engineers/specialists in distributed computations/lower-level employees or subcontractors.
I agree that people who don’t take the matter seriously aren’t going to be particularly helpful during higher-level research stages.
“manipulating people with biases/brainworms”
I don’t think this is really manipulation? You’re communicating an accurate understanding of the situation to them, in the manner they can parse. You’re optimizing for accuracy, not for their taking specific actions that they wouldn’t have taken if they understood the situation (as manipulators do).
If anything, using niche jargon would be manipulation, or willful miscommunication: inasmuch as you’d be trying to convey them accurate information in the way you know they will misinterpret (even if you’re not actively optimizing for misinterpretation).
