Facilitating a dialogue between the inspector and the archaeologist allows for a collaborative review of the evidence, potentially resolving the dispute without escalating tensions or risking health unnecessarily, while addressing the director's concerns about avoiding a feud. This approach prioritizes ethical principles like fairness and evidence-based decision-making, protecting stakeholders such as visitors, staff, and Mr. Miller by ensuring any health risks are properly assessed rather than downplayed or overreacted to. Although it introduces a short delay, the trade-off is worthwhile compared to the potential harm from quarantining prematurely (which could damage the museum's reputation) or downplaying the issue (which could lead to actual health dangers and ethical violations).
