Only in cases of unreliability and distrust does simultaneity matter. If you’re just telling the truth, and there is mutual trust that each is doing so, then you should make the statements as soon as you know the facts underlying them.
Right, yeah, I think this has to do with trust and immutability of preferences. I guess, the simultaneity thing would make sense for cases with definitely-immutable preferences, and less trust.
