A debate frames the conversation such a way that if I emerge smarter and learn something new, I'm the loser. So at the end of it, what we're going to know is either you're right, good for you, and I'm wrong, or I'm right, that's it. And so one shift of a framing question is, if you're in a situation with someone else where you disagree about something, the natural question to ask yourself is to ask yourself which one of us is right, which is basically the debate question. That's an essay question. We can start to explore how people see things differently.
