# Play: Perspective Reversal
Every position has a blind spot — things that are invisible precisely because of
where you're standing. The opposing perspective sees those things clearly. This skill
requires fully setting aside your own position and genuinely inhabiting the other one
— without qualification, defence, or commentary — then returning to extract what was
revealed. Half-hearted perspective-taking (staying in your own frame while gesturing
at theirs) produces nothing. Full inhabitation produces findings.
