There's a valuable mediation technique in which the ground rule is that both parties have to succeed in summarising the other party's position in a way that is seen as accurate by the other party.

That's why so many arguments arise here. But we don't have mediators, so anyone who maliciously misrepresents another's position not only wastes everyone's time but also causes a massive amount of frustration in forcing people of good intent to have to continually clarify their position.
