> It could be thoughtful positive feedback, which is just as useful as criticism (i.e. thoughtful negative feedback). I disagree, (supposedly thought) positive feedback is extremely common and rarely provides anything new (or own minds are well tunned to try to find reinforcing evidence to back our past decisions). Negative feedback is much more rare due to social pressure to not 'offend' and other such bullshit, and even when it is not particularly thoughtful it adds something to our thinking as it is unlikely to be something we would have considered.
