Use when the user is dealing with a leader — a CEO, political figure, boss, business partner, negotiating counterparty — whose self-presentation is larger-than-life in a way that feels like armor over insecurity: everything is the biggest/greatest/best, name plastered on everything, monuments and ornament everywhere, "I alone can fix it" framing. Helps the user tell armor from genuine stature, predict which kinds of criticism will land vs. harden the leader, and recognize early warning signs that institutional constraints will be treated as obstacles to personal glory. Triggers on phrases like "this person inflates everything", "is their bravado real or compensatory", "how do I criticize a leader who can't take criticism", "should I take this leader's grandiose claims seriously", "they treat their office like personal property", "they are claiming unlimited authority — how worried should I be". Do not use for: leaders whose high self-confidence is backed by commensurate accomplishment; ordinary strong personalities; cultural styles (e.g., family business owners in certain regions) where showy self-presentation is normative without implying the pathology described here.
