Yeah, I do think it's a superpower to, even if you "know" something is right or wrong, to put it in the form of a question about a risk. You frame the other party as possibly having information you don't.

It also opens up a new bad path: 3) the other person being ashamed of not having this perspective and digging in on the bad plan.
But if you're seeing #3 regularly, that's a job you need to quit ASAP.
