If you know Ms X's hand gives way when chopping vegetables and that she has cut herself so frequently that she no longer does so, and it doesn't crop up in the course of the appeal, then when asked at the end if you have anything to say, you can say: "Ms X's hand gives way when chopping vegetables and she has cut herself so frequently that she no longer does so". But that is your statement. If you ask Ms X how she chops vegetables she will hopefully answer in exactly the form you want. Of the two approaches the latter gives the best evidence (so long as the client doesn't say she has no problem!).
The chairman may have had such extensive experience of reps following path A and really wanted to hear path B to the extent that they told you to do it, who can tell?
Did you win?
