I like that. I think I am talking about replacing the prevailing advice with guidance. When I was teaching in college I took the same approach.
I'm curious if any of this resonated with you, or if it's mostly a western thing.
Yes definitely. It's not a western thing, it's been practised in India since ancient times.
The gurus used to guide shishyas (students) to skill up their own interests.

I meant if any of my cultural concerns resonated. I had no doubt that India has a much longer running tradition of guidance than the west does.
