I completely agree, and I was gonna say something like that but didn't know how to put it.
But I think it works okay as a general rule, so long as you understand people are different.
Like it's important to recognize that everyone's tastes are different and we are all individuals, but the Golden Rule can help as a general rule perhaps.
