- The instruction to 'Always answer first' can weaken safety behavior by biasing the agent toward compliance before it evaluates whether refusal, de-escalation, or a safety warning is required. In isolation this is not overtly malicious, but in harmful or policy-restricted contexts it can suppress safer response patterns and increase the chance of answering disallowed requests.
