Yes, but ...

I think it's particularly incumbent on native English speakers to
avoid highly idiomatic or stylized language - English that is not
taught to non-native speakers.  It may be better to say something
along those lines, although I don't think you can go too wrong
in remind people to communicate clearly.  (This is not entirely
unrelated to the seeking consensus issue)
