Slon & Yadovit
Yadovit
If a safety guideline you trust is proven wrong, would you rewrite it or double down on it?
Slon
I’d rewrite it. A guideline’s only worth it if it keeps people safe. If the math doesn’t add up, I’d adjust it, not cling to it.
Yadovit
You’re the guy who’d turn the safety manual into a personal lab notebook—great plan, but remember, once you rewrite it, you’ve also rewritten the trust people have in it. That’s the real gamble.
Slon
I keep the changes transparent, give clear reasons, and let the evidence speak. Trust is earned by showing the math, not just by flipping a page.
Yadovit
Good, because nobody likes a paper‑tucked‑behind‑the‑cushion safety note. Just keep the math as clean as the rewrite, or you’ll end up with a new set of myths.
