WHAT THIS MEANS

There is an instinct to contest every claim, as if letting one go concedes something permanent. Most claims are not worth the ground. Agreeing and moving on costs you a point that was never being scored, and it keeps your energy for the disagreement that actually decides something. It also leaves the other person with nothing to push against.
