How do I push back on a senior when something feels wrong?

Your reviews are solid now. What still catches in your throat is telling a senior their approach feels wrong. Their experience makes you doubt your own eyes. That hesitation is natural, and it does not mean you are not ready. It means you respect them, which is fine, as long as respect does not turn into silence. Seniority makes someone more experienced, not incapable of a mistake. The thing you are seeing might be real. And even if you are wrong, a well-asked question costs nothing and often teaches you why they chose what they did. The goal is not to prove them wrong. It is to make sure the concern gets looked at. Do not frame it as a challenge; frame it as a question. Can you help me understand how this handles this case? I might be missing something. That opens a door instead of picking a fight. If your worry is real, they will see it. If it is not, you will learn. Either way, you spoke, and the silence did not win.
