Facilitating a mediated dialogue between the inspector and the archaeologist allows for a collaborative review of the evidence, potentially resolving the conflict based on facts rather than assumptions, which addresses the uncertainties around the mold's severity and any ulterior motives. This approach prioritizes ethical principles like transparency, fairness, and the well-being of stakeholders, including visitors and staff like Mr. Miller, while minimizing risks of negative press or health hazards compared to downplaying the issue or immediate quarantine. Although quarantine ensures immediate safety, it could escalate tensions unnecessarily, and downplaying risks health without verification, making dialogue the best trade-off for a balanced, informed resolution.
