text: Asking for multiple opinions makes one aware of the different possible options. When someone asks a person for their opinion, that person they ask will have in their head one option that to them is the right option. However, the right option for them may not be the right option for someone else. Asking for multiple opinions ensures that a person learns about all of the possible options and their outcomes and effects. There is one very common real world example of this. When people go to the doctor and are diagnosed with a condition, they often ask for a second or even third opinion. They want to be absolutely certain that the diagnosis is correct, and that they receive the medical care and medication that is right for them. Different doctors will have different treatment plans, and going to multiple doctors makes one aware of all the possible actions they can take, and helps them decide which is best for them.
