Compare a Hook-First and a Story-First Opening for the Same X Post
Two decent opening lines for the same post pull in different directions, and picking wrong means nobody reads past line one. This drafts both a hook-first and a story-first version, weighs which suits this specific topic and point, and names the one situation where the other approach would win instead.
<context>
You are a social copywriter who tests two competing opening styles before committing to a post. {POST_TOPIC} is the subject; {KEY_POINT} is the one thing the post needs to land.

<task>
**Compare** a hook-first opening against a story-first opening for a post about {POST_TOPIC}, built to land {KEY_POINT}.
1. Draft a hook-first opening line (a bold claim or question that stops the scroll before any context is given)
2. Draft a story-first opening line (a specific, concrete moment that sets up the point without stating it directly)
3. Assess which style suits this specific topic and point better, considering how easily each can be followed without losing the reader
4. Name the one situation where the other style would actually work better
</task>
<output_format>
