@pumpkinman - IMO in regards to business viability it’s just as valuable to see someone’s process of how they came to the conclusion as the conclusion itself

Thanks for the support. I considered the @pumpkinman's complaint quite odd!

To address their primary note directly: I do indeed speak this way when reviewing details and considering hunches on viability. If someone only needs a conclusion then I give them one. Most people legitimately considering something, like creating an ML implementation (something I do all the time) and mapping to business feasibility, benefit by understanding the "why" of a conclusion. That by chance you do not personally benefit is not pertinent. If I have read your comment appropriately, I recommend adopting this interpersonal wisdom: https://xkcd.com/1053/
