pro tip
Screw that noise.
I can totally understand when someone just kinda prefers to make a phone call, but am enormously suspicious of anyone who is insistent about it. Second-guessing my gut take there has literally never, ever paid off.
"Avoid a paper trail!" Is what I hear when people insist on phone calls

@Kevin Totally. Also, generational. Boomers and Silent Generation prefer calls to email and text. Idiots.
*Insisting* on phone calls is a red flag. This seems more about strategy for getting shit done quickly when dealing with someone with low-level reading comprehension skills. The ability of some people to misinterpret the most carefully constructed email message borders on the occult.
