    Would probably be helpful to give examples because most people I have seen that say that they play devils advocate ( including myself in the past) are actually just being argumentative for the sake of it.

      I am being argumentative for the sake of it. What’s there to discuss if everyone is in complete agreement? I enjoy a challenge more than a circlejerk. I’m challenging your ideas with the expectation of the same being done to mine. I want people to try and poke holes into my ideas.
