I think this idea can be expanded on, and it is to separate the merits of the idea from the delivery of the idea. I see this frequently with:
- neurodivergent people (of whatever variety)
- ESL speakers
- cultural clashes (eg Dutch / American meetings)
If you can separate delivery and the merits of a discussion, you can benefit both ways -- taking a skeptical view on the best pitches (eg from anyone on a Forbes 30 for 30 list) and an optimistic view on the worst.
