I believe that understanding the concept that people may see things differently is a very valuable skill to have. Taking the time to ask questions and understand someone else's perspective of something may help you see it in a new way, or help you explain to them why their perspective is right or wrong.
I am going to school for Occupational Safety and Health and this is a skill that is needed in this field. Some workers may not see something as a health or safety risk and it is our job to point out to them and explain why it is a risk. If someone refuses to see it as a risk then they may not take the proper precautions. This could be dangerous to them or other people around them.
In general I feel it is good for people to be able to communicate and not be stubborn about how they perceive something. It is good for people to be open to learning new perspectives of things and not shut other people down right away based on the way they think about something.
