Choose a low-stakes example you can change without affecting another person’s private information or commitments.

1. Describe the current situation in one sentence. The example here is: A discussion keeps returning to one attractive solution.
2. Ask what observation would make that solution less suitable.
3. Compare the result with the difficulty you named. Write one concrete observation.
4. Keep, adapt, or stop the experiment. A note about why you stopped is a valid result.
