You might say…
“I believe this but I can't say it in a way that makes clear what's actually at stake.”
What it does
Takes a candidate thesis and sharpens it into a genuinely arguable, ownable position by naming who would disagree, what makes it distinct from conventional wisdom, and how to state it so a reasonable person could push back.
Trigger: Use after a through-line has formed but before stress-testing or naming — when the claim exists but is still too fuzzy to defend or publish.
I/O: Candidate thesis → sharpened ownable claim with named dissenters, specific distance from adjacent positions, and arguable formulation
