What I hate about this whole thing, is that there are many reasons someone might reach out to a coworker with questions. Not all require the knowledge in fancy markdown with emojis.

Maybe they want to show respect to a person by asking their opinion before proceeding with a change

Maybe they want to share context and make that person aware of what they're thinking without being so obvious

Maybe they need _that person_ to provide some assurances directly because they are not confident in thier plan (see 1)

Maybe they are just in a rut and need to start a conversation with a person

Every use of AI for these robs the employee culture of a genuine trust building moment.
