My lawyer advised me:

“If individuals in our social worlds were to only provide solicited advice it would be a quiet place without social media platform interaction, nor endless feeds. With solid certainty, I wouldn’t post anything. It’s never asked for. This here surely wasn’t.

Trees on the grasslands would have a unit of shadow unused but by an elder in solitude with all the storytelling knowledge unasked for by youngsters who went off to play with a slithering thing they found yet had no need to solicit for its surprising bite.

Parents would deploy a laisser faire approach with their newborns who do not know of asking beyond basic necessities via sonorities of painful delight. Language acquisition would be unwanted mimicry when no one was listening.

Streets would have no name where no traveler asked to be guided.

There would be no advertising, none whatsoever.

Police wouldn’t be lenient with an unasked-for warning alone.

What a relief: all mansplaining (by whichever gender) would be a thing of mythology which no one would hear of nor read, since no one can ask for what they do not know of to ask, nor know of to need.

Ford would have made faster horses rather than assembly lines and cars, since no one solicited efficiency for whom efficiency was imposed; nor cars or asfalt or traffic jams, CO overload, parking lots instead of rivers or playgrounds. Let alone changes in climate. Who solicited that?!

Would there be wars or any number of commandments? No. Who solicited those but a handful who do not solicit but do delegate and impose?

Ah, a word of advice would be none, and a world unsoliciting would remain for the taking and left unshaken.”
