Decide Whether a 'Quick Sync' Request Is Actually Quick Before You Accept It

Someone has asked for a 'quick sync' and you know from painful experience that quick is doing a lot of work in that sentence. This reads the request and tells you honestly whether it is really five minutes or a meeting in disguise, then gives you a question to ask back and a line to counter-propose something shorter.

Someone has asked for a 'quick sync', [describe what they said and who it's from]. Read the request and tell me honestly whether it is really a five-minute conversation or a thirty-minute meeting in a lighter disguise, based on what is actually being asked. Give me one question I could ask back to surface the real scope, and a one-line way to counter-propose a shorter slot or an email instead if it turns out to be the latter. Keep the whole answer under 120 words, direct and practical, no meeting-etiquette platitudes.
