There are also asymmetries worth noticing. The person who was hosting may have invested more: cleaning, shopping, arranging privacy in a shared home. The person who was travelling may have arranged transport or time off. Someone new to a city or to a community may be counting on the meeting more heavily than the sender realises. These differences are invisible from the outside, which is one reason a short courtesy costs little relative to its effect.
