When you ask multiple people you get options and ask for reasons on why they believe what they do. It gives you the opportunity to compare their reasons and determine which one is the better option. In doing this you also can ask reasons why you shouldn't do the other option and once you average out the good and bad outcomes of each solution, you will find an even better option.
