Here's a question I am asking lately. If I should not use anthropomorphic language, how do you suggest I handle the following situation:

   Sometimes my coding agents will seemingly refuse to follow my instructions.  When I ask them why - they say that they do not think my design is a sound one, and they have a better way to do it.  We will then sit down and come to a consensus on how best to move forward.

I argue that if we're using software that acts like a human - the only way to interface with it is to speak to it like a human. Otherwise we have no language to speak to a non-sentient object without anthropomorphization.

I'm starting to wonder if the people arguing against anthropomorphization actually have any experience at all working with agents.

EDIT: It's a simple question. When you downvote me without answering, I must assume you don't have any answer and dislike what that implies.
