I'm not sure what led you to characterize my proposal as involving
"mind reading." As your lecturer demonstrated, even face-to-face
contexts require active listening and inference about what is being
asked. At least my proposal enriches the semantic environment beyond
that of the lone developer staring at a text file.
Human communication is imperfect. Alas, we are all cast in the role of
the mind reader. But some contexts provide more context than others.
