Stay out of the weeds.
Prefer experts over studies.
When your numbers are challenged, state the source of the numbers, ask do you have numbers you think are more accurate, they will say not that seems high, then ask what numbers would be acceptable to you.
Use “Even if that were true, how does that make it right”
The weight of the evidence.
Pin them down on their assertions
