I'm interested in seeing if the sentiment is different now that Twitter has ... changed.
For me the sentiment is even stronger, further amplified by the presence of AI. Big reason why I started a personal blog around New year.

Sure, this is not the optimal way to pitch to a manager. But why wouldn't the manager be able to point out it isn't a good idea _without discouraging the pitcher_? Why not start / continue the conversation by responding with a question — "Sounds awesome, what would be the benefits short term?" ... "And how about the long term?" ... "Do you also see downsides?".
Sounds like the discouraging part in the articles' examples is mostly the about the manager failing to rigorously communicate about the "management-internal" conversation that leads to rejection...
Yes, managers should make an effort to explain the optimal way and steer the conversation. But also people who are in an individual contributor role can simply get ahead of the game by learning the difference.
Is ChatGPT involved? :)
IMO one of the founders must be the chief growth hacker. Hiring people to delegate execution of details is easier. Curious about replies.
