Common challenges: Values-discussion language at B2 requires hedging — I would argue that, it could be said, it depends on. Avoiding stereotype: questions distinguish individual experience from cultural generalisation. Polite disagreement: I see your point, but I’d say, that’s true to some extent, however.
