Marginalia:
Delay is not indecision
Delay is not indecision but a disciplined refusal to let the first available explanation become the only one. Question assumptions, incentives, emotions, and sources before accepting a story.

It is respect for complexity. It is the refusal to allow the first available map to become the only possible territory.
Delay asks - what else could this be? What am I not seeing? Who wants this interpretation to become dominant? What would change my mind? What source would I trust if it disagreed with me? What does this story make me feel, and who benefits from that feeling?
These questions may not make you popular.
They will make you harder to recruit.
