Saraswati is the Plane of neutrality in this board's arrangement. Here, neutrality means a pause in which more than one perspective can be considered. It need not mean indifference to what happens.
A strong preference can be useful, but it can also make you overlook information that does not fit. Taking a little distance may reveal a question that the argument has obscured: what actually needs to be decided, and what can remain unresolved for now?
Consider what you could hear more clearly if you did not have to defend a position immediately. After that pause, you can still choose, set a boundary or take action.
