When you make a request and your autistic security engineers immediately say "Are you sure?”:

1) Stop
2) Repent.

"Are you sure?" is something we say just before you do something that is going to cause a lot of pain, aggravation, or expense because of an assumption you've made somewhere deep, deep in the stack of assumptions that were made leading to this decision... and if you say “yes" we assume you are aware of it.

@chillybot @ra6bit "Could" and "Should" are two very different meanings.
