I think this is an area where induction is important? If my previous interactions with someone are friendly conversation, it makes sense to interpret a request that they ask me questions as an invitation to more friendly conversation. If they’ve previously interviewed me professionally and haven’t had friendly conversations with me, it make sense to interpret that as an interview.
