“They'd asked 'what should we do' — they needed the options laid out before they could hear the answer.”
What it does
When the question is a decision request, structures the reply as a tight options-with-tradeoffs memo ending in a single recommendation and the conditions under which it would change. Used when the client is choosing between paths rather than asking for a view.
Trigger: Use when the client is choosing between paths rather than asking for a single view, and you need to show your reasoning before landing the recommendation.
