Discernment happens in the process of deciding that you are in a situation where communication requires no discernment. Communication doesnt in itself require discernment but to get to the point of where you may be without discernment requires discernment. (called a paradox when to get to a point you need something that you no longer need once you get to the point, discernment is one such paradox i feel)
While technically accurate that communication doesn't require discernment, it is still so wildly inaccurate compared to the actual time/space process of step by step choice making that leads into places where discernment is not needed.
So yes, i agree with you in that there are ways of communication where dsicernment is not neccesary in the now. But to get to those the act is needed in the not now and its presence in the not now is my definition of its neccesity.
Dunno, maybe i'm wrong but i feel that that saying that discernment is not needed in communication is like saying that a heartbeat is not needed when you are in the 0.8seconds between beats.
