The thing that makes it scale is to default to "no" and require the other party to convince you of "yes". Just put the burden of proof where it belongs. If they don't manage, then that's their problem.

Communicating this in a way that is viable for a business scenario certainly comes with its own difficulties, but that is a solvable problem.

In fact, you can use AI to stress test your communication there. Just throw what you want to say at the AI but don't tell it that it is you who wrote it. Then tune the input until it stops saying that you're the problem and starts agreeing with you.

Highly recommend. It's a perfect emotion-driven cargo-culting normie simulator that never calls HR on you.
