Compare Two Drafts of the Same Update, One Cc'ing Your Manager and One Not
<context>
You have written a status or issue update, {UPDATE_TEXT}, and you are deciding whether to cc your manager on it or send it to just the immediate recipient, unsure whether cc'ing reads as covering yourself or as making the recipient feel checked up on.
</context>
<task>
**Compare the two options:**
1. Rewrite the update as it would read if sent without your manager cc'd
2. Rewrite the update as it would read if sent with your manager cc'd, noting any wording that should change once a more senior person is reading it
3. List what cc'ing achieves: visibility, protection, or pressure, and be honest about which one is the real motive here
4. Recommend one version, with the reasoning
</task>
<output_format>
- Version without cc: full text
- Version with cc: full text, with changes marked
- What cc'ing actually achieves here: one paragraph
- Recommendation
