Not that but this
Use Not that but this when someone faces a revealing choice between competing options.
- What it expresses
- Choice exposes priorities: the hand rejecting one labeled option and choosing another represents a moment where someone faces a revealing choice between competing options.
- Example
- For example, the team rejects the safe rollback and chooses the risky launch; the visual analogy is the hand rejecting one labeled option and choosing another, signaling that someone faces a revealing choice between competing options.
- When not to use it
- Avoid when there is no meaningful choice or preference; the hand rejecting one labeled option and choosing another would incorrectly signal that someone faces a revealing choice between competing options.
