At some point, we're *all* stubborn in someone else's
eyes.

it is preaching to you... )

Unless your corporate culture actually values win-lose
interactions, I'd think about going at this in a
different way.

If I were faced with this, I'd ask her why she doesn't
insist on continuing the step numbering across
different procedures in a chapter -- assuming she
doesn't (and if she did, well, there's a bigger
problem there). I'd then ask why she doesn't see the
relationship of sub-steps to steps in a similar
manner. That becomes the space in which we'd work out
our differences. Andrew Warren has some very good
looking ideas for helping you to do this.
