I'm going to have to stop using 'no' to affirm negatives. People keep thinking I'm disagreeing with them. Perhaps this is dying.
Interested in whether it's dying out in British English coz I'm a language geek so I'm asking early before Americans are up. It is there.

Ah. Right. Ok.
Not British. Not a clue. But I'd understand your "no" being an agreement. -
No, no. I don't mean shut up! I just mean I'm interested in finding out how people understand it. Already decided to stop doing it.

I know you didn't. I just decided to get back to your question, as you intended.
