Summary: I explain the context for why I have a [public debate policy](https://www.elliottemple.com/debate-policy) – both philosophical reasons and experiences. I talk about fallibilism, rationality and error correction. I discuss how, counter-intuitively, my debate policy saves time and energy for me. I suggest that others create debate policies. This follows my previous article, [Fallibilism, Bias, and the Rule of Law](https://criticalfallibilism.com/fallibilism-bias-and-the-rule-of-law/), which argued in favor of using written rationality policies (which has similar merits to the rule of law).
