How do you respectful tell someone you think they are mistaken? I'd rather not be pussyfooted around by someone if I'm in the role of "person who has asked a question based on a faulty assumption". Don't be rude but don't avoid trying to answer truthfully to the best of your ability.

- andybak 6y agoThe wording used was "You’re asking the wrong question” not "You don't know what you're talking about". I find that perfectly fine. It was slightly disingenuous to reword it.
