'Can you talk me through this document you sent me'.

I might have limited my career progression briefly when I asked if they had read the document, then called them out on the lie - 'was the 2 paragraph summary at the start not clear'.

I now put the summary in the email body as well, apparently it is easy to miss the heading Summary.

"apparently it is easy to miss the heading Summary."

It is, when you are not paying attention, because you are busy with lots of other stuff. So putting the summary in the email seems lile a working pragmatic approach.

Allegedly they read the document, but somehow they didnt see the section at the start titled summary.

It was a lie - they didnt read the document, I was busy is the dog ate my homework level of excuses. If you are taking home 7 figures you should probably brush up on your excuses.

If you have time to ‘hop on a call’ and discuss things you are clearly not busy.

It’s almost like your busyness is paramount and the other person may never be busy in case you need to quick-question them at your whim.

In that case they will be so busy that they are not even able to read the summary in the email. Busyness is an excuse.
