I commonly argue positions I don't necessarily agree with.
Often these are ideas that I don't agree with, but I can't articulate exactly why I disagree.
When I argue it, I can get others to argue against the idea, and so I can discover points that I may not have been able to put to words.
It's essentially idea farming.
