I personally think that the opening question is misguided in the innocent assumption that one question or one behavior can encapsulate stage yellow.

Right, RendHeaven. I wanted to post about the same thing. You have to discuss deeply to see if someone is yellow. It is likely that they want to hear as much views as possible without labeling them as good or bad. But! Thats only if they can do it because:

@Carl-Richard Ahaha, me too! xD What changed ? 

Well, after a while you kinda get familiar with the model, and also back then I didn't have spiritual experiences left and right. I still want to learn more, which is why I made this topic :)
