I like the way you have framed that. You describe direct blunt disagreement as something you are giving the opponent out of (a certain kind of) respect.
Well. yeah. It is strange. A great many people think you show respect by patting someone else on the head and saying “great idea, but...” I think that’s the height of condescension and disrespect.
