@dhein Would it be correct to say that it's not always a case of purely playing devil's advocate, but rather, an issue that appears black and white to your conversant is genuinely ambiguous to you? That way, even if you lean towards their side, it would actually be disingenuous of you to say "obviously you're right, but here's why I think the wrong people think the way they do." Correct me if I'm wrong. Because I often find myself in that spot. — Bridgeburners 53 secs ago
