One way to reconcile the two viewpoints is to find the conditions in which the recommendation is useful and instead of saying:
“everyone can benefit from this therefore everyone should do it”
To
“People who are X and Y can benefit from this and should try it”
Kind of like the sanity checks/boundary checks we put in the beginning of a function before we start processing data.
- ZeroSolstice 4y agoAs a person making the recommendation why would you place bounds on it? There could be an unlimited number of conditions in which the suggestion could work as intended verse trying to consider all possible interpretations of your recommendation by all the people that might read it. Why would the onus for this not be on the reader to place within their own bounds of understanding and abilities?
