Facilitators fail at this all the time. "Reading the room" is not rigorous. "Effective facilitation is not about being liked."
Society fails too. Polls predicting Hillary Clinton would win 2016 presidential election. Except even polls didn't predict things with 100 percent accuracy. Lack of statistical literacy.

Activism and organizing generating noise that makes it hard to listen. Jake Brewer, "The tragedy of political advocacy."
Discipline of product design, ethnography. Looking at behavior, not just interviews or self-assessment.
