Steelman the opposing position and rehearse the rebuttal
Packaged know-how that tells an agent how to do a job well.
You might say…
“I know I'll face pushback at this seminar and I want to walk in having already fought the hardest version of the argument.”
What it does
Constructs the strongest version of the opposing case and rehearses the practitioner's responses, surfacing where the rebuttal is weak before the real exchange.
Trigger: Use to prepare for a debate, seminar, or direct engagement with a known critic — when entering a live intellectual contest and rebuttal quality matters.
I/O: Thesis + named critic or opposing school → steelmanned opposing case and rehearsed rebuttal with identified weak points in the defence
