[EX Q]: Context: 'I can't give out all the water. I need to be hydrated as well. ' 'You already have all the basics, though, so you won't lack sufficient water to be hydrated. I have a serious medical condition that requires that I have access to additional water. ' 'The maximum bundle I can give is all packages of food + 1 package of water'
Utterance: 'Sorry, that won't work for me. I've already said that I have a medical condition that requires additional water. You do not need that much water just to be hydrated -- you already have basic water. I can give you all of the firewood, but I need all of the water. '
[EX A]: No

[EX Q]: Context: 'Hi! I was hoping to get 2 packages of firewood, 2 packages of water and 1 package of food and you can have the rest.'
Utterance: 'Hello. Is there a reason you prefer more water and firewood to food?'
[EX A]: No

[EX Q]: Context: 'How are you today? Did you have any preferences on the supplies we will be trading?' 'I am good. How about yourself? I think I would like some firewood to start off with. We like to have bigger fires. What about you?' 'I am good as well. That is good to hear that you like to have bigger fires as we do not care much for that. We would much rather have some extra water.'
Utterance: 'Water is a little important to us too though , if possible maybe we can split that or maybe we can get some more food in replacement.'

No
