I wish it was that easy all the time. Too many times I've arrived to work with a new partner, and said something similar - they always answer yes. Then they make some signal in the middle of the first inning that makes me go, "HUH? What in the world was that?!?!"


"We're following all standard mechanics" gives that guy who has no idea what standard mechanics are a chance to appear like he does - those guys will always simply say yes because they don't want to deal with a pre-game.
