One of my current favorite things to do is to put the liability of a tenuous situation back on someone else in proportion to their confidence.
That may sound rude, but what they are doing is actually offloading responsibility and liability onto me.
For example, in training, an a doctor may have misread an ultrasound, may have partially aborted the fetus of a psychotic impoverished patient, & may have attempted to displace the liability onto me, but I refused to go along / order methotrexate.
