Well I think because people already say “for clarity,” And making it more succinct is soldier-like, making boss feel important (like a “Dom”). I can kind of see how a boss might, incorrectly, see “for clarity, you want me to do x?” Or"to be clear I need to do x?" As “I can’t believe you’re asking me to do that, idiot” but then not seen clarity: x as a challenge
Kinda sounds like the boss also learned that phrasing from kink. Why else would he respond well to such an unusual turn of phrase?
