🔸Group Credit Life Insurance | The Core of Housing Finance Risk Structure #39 Why was the explanation 'correct' yet failed to convince? — On the divide between logic and emotion
Introduction
In the previous installment, I addressed the "structure where it is unclear who is making the final decision."
**"A structure where it is unclear who is making the final decision."**
This time, we go one level deeper.
The judgment and the explanation are both correct according to the system.
Yet, why can the parties involved not accept it?
This is not a matter of emotion.
It is a problem of the "layer gap" between system design and explanation design.
1 | The defensive wall of "the explanation is correct"
There are phrases repeatedly used in the field.
It is based on the policy provisions.
It is based on the doctor's diagnosis.
It is in accordance with internal standards.
All of these are factually correct.
However, what the parties involved are seeking is
not "correctness."
What they are seeking is
**positional information regarding "where exactly was the line drawn for me?"**
2 | The hierarchy of logic and the hierarchy of emotion do not align
The system is constructed in the following order:
Medical facts
Evaluation of employability
Compliance with policy provisions
Judgment on payment eligibility
On the other hand, the understanding of the parties involved begins in reverse order.
Why was I rejected?
Based on what criteria was the line drawn?
Who ultimately decided?
The order is reversed.
That is why the explanation is "seemingly understood, but not accepted."
3 | "Cannot accept" is not an emotion, but a lack of information
When told "I cannot accept this,"
it is often dismissed as being emotional.
But the reality is different.
At what stage,
by what criteria,
were which options excluded?
This structure is simply not visualized.
People
do not find acceptance just by knowing the result.
Only by knowing the "path of judgment" can they begin to recover.
4 | The role demanded of professionals
What is being questioned here
is not the accuracy of the judgment.
What is required of professionals
is the ability to translate the judgment process.
Medicine, insurance, finance,
can you translate the logic of each
into the timeline and language of the parties involved?
As long as that cannot be done,
no matter how correct the explanation is,
only the feeling of being "cast aside" will remain.
5 | What is needed next is not "explanation" but "design"
What is needed
is not to make the explanation more polite.
Visualization of the judgment process
Design that allows the parties involved to confirm their own position
Checkpoints that can be confirmed before the result
The system can remain correct.
But the structure of the explanation needs to be redesigned.
Conclusion
In this article, I will not provide a conclusion.
I will leave just one question.
What does a "correct explanation" refer to,
from whose perspective,
and to what extent is it shown?
Unless this question can be answered,
the same distrust will be repeated in different forms.
