Delmar,
I am not sure what a "search tech" is, so you may be right on target in saying it is an unrealistic choice. And I am always in favor of being honest. BUT... I would be careful about your approach to all this. It is appropriate to discuss options -- but when you say "suggest another option" is sounds a lot like counseling someone out of the field, and that is not appropriate.
