"Why should I care?" If the stakes aren't clear, I'm not invested. What's in it for me? Why does this matter?

"Prove it." Assertions need evidence. Claims need support. If you're telling me something is true, show me.

"I already knew this." If the insight isn't new, why am I reading? What's surprising here? What did I not already know?

"This is obvious." The flip side—if you're treating something as profound that's actually common knowledge, I'll call it out.
