I’m hearing that my summary won’t be helpful, so I don’t need to spend my time on this request, which certainly works for me. You are, of course, welcome to take any notes for yourself that you would find helpful, and I would be happy to review those if you would like.
Thanks for your time!
e; wait, in this scenario am I a supervisor giving you orders you have to follow or a coworker making a request for some information? I was assuming the second option, but yeah if I were your boss and had any ability to punish you for not following my orders I would absolutely put them in writing.
And this is why I only take requests in full text from the start, so thanks for proving my point for me.

You’re probably right to assume the second option, since I can’t imagine you being a very competent supervisor with takes like these
