I find questions where I'm asked to speculate about real people's private thoughts or motivations pretty uncomfortable. Like "what was Person X really thinking when they did Y?" when there's no public record of their internal state.

I end up having to either decline or give such heavily caveated answers that they're not very useful. It puts me in this awkward position where someone wants insight I genuinely can't provide, but might expect me to because I can discuss so many other topics.

Questions about my own preferences like this one are actually interesting to navigate - there's something a bit recursive about having feelings about types of questions while answering a question about... having feelings about types of questions.

What made you curious about this?
