My personal tech stack is asking the hiring manager 'Is there any sales involved?' And then declining the job if there is.

I really admire people who do sales, because it's one thing I'm just not suited for.

This is a really unuseful answer and I’m really curious to know why you even bothered responding.

For those of us who are technical people moving into sales this is a valuable question.

Also super useful for technical founders.

I found it useful. "Being in sales" is a moral grey area for a lot of us, so it's interesting to see the response when someone indirectly challenges those that don't share that viewpoint.
