Decide in One Line Whether This Is Worth the Argument
You do not need a framework, you need a straight answer before the next thing happens. This takes one small irritation, checks it fast against three criteria, gives a single verdict and one line of reasoning, and stops there, no options, no softening, nothing else to read.
Given {SITUATION}, a brief description of a minor disagreement or irritation, decide in a single line whether it is worth raising as an argument or better left alone. Weigh it only against these criteria: whether it will still matter in a month, whether staying quiet will build resentment, and whether raising it risks more damage than the issue itself. Output a single verdict, worth it or not worth it, followed by one line of reasoning. No further discussion, no alternative options, no softening. ⚠ human-in-the-loop: you are responsible for the results of using this prompt, not us.
