    If people would be happy with bullet points we could just send them.

    But you need to have a bunch of fluff or people assume you’re being uncooperative.

      “Why can’t I just send bullet points?”

      “It’s bad etiquette. You have to put in the effort to write a proper email, to show you care.”

      “Okay, how do I write a proper email?”

      “Oh I just use ChatGPT mostly.”

      Sometimes it’s frustrating not being able to answer a yes or no question with just yes or no

        I have never met that kind of person that won’t accept a short answer that actually answers a question.

        What I have seen plenty of is people that are completely sure nobody else will accept short answers. They specifically will always accept it, of course, but nobody else.
