Reread that sentence again, just a little more slowly. If you need to say something false to protect someone's ego, then the person whose ego is in need of protecting is the one who is wrong, and can't acknowledge it without undue risk to their ego. That's a statement of fact, not a command. Refusing to change is not the same thing as demanding others change. If you can't live in a world where someone does not change their behavior to protect your ego, that's a you problem.
