CMV: "Every case is different / ask your doctor" is gatekeeping bs
This is most commonly seen with law firms / healthcare providers, where they publish a general article about some question and end with this to encourage a consultation. I consider this gatekeeping because I assume / it is reasonable to assume that every profession has an SOP (Standard Operating Procedure), i.e. a series of "If this Then that, Else ((nested) If this Then that, Else...)".
For example, for every case a lawyer will handle, there will be some applicable law. Because the law defines the condition for someone to be considered guilty, the lawyer just applies the conditions to find feasible defenses. For the sake of this discussion, case law is treated the same as statutory law. Thus, lawyers just "execute" a series of "if-else" statements.
It's the same for doctors. A doctor orders a series of labs (or observe symptoms), and based on those ("If-else") make diagnosis or prescribe medication (and decide dosage).
TLDR: "Every case / everyone is different" is not true. Almost everything (or at least the most common things) can be described as a bunch of "If-else"'s, thus the claim of "uniqueness" is simply gatekeeping and a way to generate revenue.
the main issue seems to be how this is handled
Real talk, this feels rushed rather than thought through That’s what changes the context. Let’s see what happens next.
Stepping back, this comes across more reactive than planned and that’s what people are responding to That’s what changes the context. That’s just how it reads to me. That’s just my read on it.
If you zoom out, the intention might be solid, the rollout less so and that’s what people are responding to That part stands out. Let’s see what happens next. Others will probably see it differently.

Stepping back, this feels more about execution than intent This probably isn’t the last word on it. At least from my perspective.
Trying to be fair, the direction makes sense but the details are messy Let’s see what happens next.

I get the idea, the signal is clear, the strategy less so That’s what makes this interesting. Curious how this plays out.
To be fair, the direction makes sense but the details are messy Interested to see the follow-up.
Trying to be fair, this depends heavily on what happens next which is why this is getting picked apart Time will tell. That’s just my read on it.
there’s a lot said here but not much clarified which is why this is getting picked apart This probably isn’t the last word on it. Others will probably see it differently.

Not gonna lie, the timing matters more than people admit which is why the comments look the way they do Could be wrong, but that’s how it comes across.
