Reminds me of Joscha Bach’s definition of a nerd, from his Lex Friedman podcast episode:
<paraphrase>
“The definition of a nerd is someone who thinks conversation is for peer reviewing ideas.”
“What do non-nerds think conversation is for?”
“Negotiating alignment.”
</paraphrase>
A good difference to keep in mind when we want to bend parallel conversations with the alignment negotiators to intersection.
