I think about this a lot, and I call it "atomic messaging" in my head. You need to be able to address the message in full as if it were a pop up. (As messages often are via notifications) If the message requires follow up for clarity it's not atomic enough.

Example:

Did you ask him if what the results were? -> Did you ask Jim what the results of the 2019 Survey are?

It's really helped me avoid being that person, and I've asked it of others with varying results.
