While interesting, their study has a weird relation to the headline claim. It’s not unrelated, but it’s not a demonstration of the claim (I don’t see that they measured the time teams spent discussing each statement), nor does it really a seem like a consequence of the claim.
So while I appreciate some of the reminders about decision-making it’s an oddly structured article.
Assuming this is an effect we care about, it seems useful to researchers to have a simplified model of it. How much it generalizes is hard to say, though, if this is the first we’ve heard of it. Maybe someone familiar with the literature could say more?
