There's plenty of value in non-obvious things. (Obviously, but explicitly stated, because if I don't say it someone will assume I disagree.)

Another genre: "And then because X, Y happens." "And clearly because that is a process it is documented. "Well actually..." "GOOD TO KNOW."

I feel that given the reputation of that phrase I should print out business cards w/ "I never consider 'Well actually' a waste of my time."
