The ability to dominate a situation does not make domination the wisest response.

Being able to overpower a situation makes it tempting to, and force ends conversations rather than resolving them. Winning by weight leaves the other person compliant and unconvinced, and stores up the disagreement for a later moment when your position may be weaker. The capacity is not the same as the case for using it.

When you could simply decide, ask what you lose by persuading instead. Often it costs an hour and buys years of cooperation.
