We already have [Competitor] for another use case — adding yours would create data silos.

"We can federate data from [Competitor] rather than replicate it — our platform reads from your existing system so there's no new silo, just a new layer on top. Would that address the concern?"

"What data lives in [Competitor] that you'd want us to access, and what's the integration method — API, webhooks, direct database? I want to understand the architecture before proposing."

"Data silos are a real concern — and the answer isn't 'don't use more tools', it's 'use tools that share data.' We can design an integration that makes [Competitor] and us work together, not against each other."
