From what I understand it’s like robbing someone of their agency. Now they are doing the thing at the behest of another’s intent instead of their own free will. It’s a perfectly cromulent feeling for one to have. How it gets handled is another thing.

This guy gets it. Being asked to do something and doing it immediately creates this "hi, I'll do stuff immediately when asked" thingy.

If you've been taken advantage of because of inability to say no to random shit and being a pushover then it really feels like you're regressing when doing a task immediately.

Another situation where it's just supremely annoying is when it's a pretty obvious next step like when you're cleaning the bathroom mirror and a person asks you to clean the toilet. I'd literally tell a flatmate I didn't feel like it even though I was seconds away from doing it.
