If Jandila wants, for politeness sake, to avoid starting a fight, that’s a rational choice.
More like “Am feeling low confidence about own ability to express this in a way such that intended point will come through with sufficient signal to seperate it from the noise of other possible readings.” This is not simply confusing “has understood my point” with “agrees with my point”; I actually have a bit of a difficult time unpacking things like this because of how low-level perceptual it gets for me. I have conceptual synaesthesia, so I can glimpse distinctions and nuances pretty clearly, but it’s very difficult to translate “It’s that curly bit of the shape over there” back into argument-speak. Makes downvoting easy; even when I know what I mean and can tell the other party hasn’t understood what I said, I can’t really argue that my presentation sucked.
Since there seems to be an interest in me making a go at it, I’ll give this some thought.
