"Prompts" sounds stilted, "raises" is an extra syllable.

I agree that "prompts" sounds stilted, but are you seriously advocating using something that's incorrect -- "begs" -- instead of "raises" just because it's slightly shorter?

Yep. "Begs" isn't incorrect anymore. Your pointless battle was lost before you ever started caring.
