thanking people for their questions / calling all questions interesting is a standard deflection/delay tactic. you see politicians do it all the time.

okay yeah i'm going to rephrase that a bit. as someone that has worked at a ton of companies i do find it lol when certain phrases/mannerisms become sticky for the whole organization. on the other hand, people that are otherwise not paying attention are probably attuned to those magic words and don't need something different

I was in a meeting and someone asked about the status of a project and a manager said - and this is a verbatim quote:quote:we liaised with relevant stakeholders and concluded that the project is not happenable given current constraints.
