I think what @D-FB is hinting at one of the [cognitive biases](https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_cognitive_biases) aka

> There are also controversies over some of these biases as to whether they count as useless or [irrational](https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Irrationality), or whether they result in useful attitudes or behavior. For example, when getting to know others, people tend to ask [leading questions](https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Leading_question) which seem biased towards confirming their assumptions about the person. However, this kind of [confirmation bias](https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Confirmation_bias) has also been argued to be an example of [social skill](https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Social_skills); a way to establish a connection with the other person.

This is why for critical discussion as in case say with [legal structure](https://gov.uniswap.org/t/diversity-for-working-groups/24097/3), I would advocate deliberately inviting in contrary opinions including those who don’t want a legal structure.

I notice this in traditional govts in that the various commissions always seem to be leading towards extending govt regulation, never reducing it 😮‍💨 After all, if there was no problem to be solved, they wouldn’t have a reason to exist …
