I do usually roast it, and would only sauté if I were being miserly with dishes or didn't want to turn on the oven, but I would expect it to be fine, yeah.
...I'm a pretty good cook and can't actually think of any reason you shouldn't sauté asparagus. You shouldn't sauté... lettuce? I can't think of a good reason to sauté seaweed? But asparagus seems like it'd be fine.
Does it seem likely that soybean oil in particular is special? I think I could pretty straightforwardly eliminate it from my diet - I never cook with it and am not specifically attached to snacks that contain it - but I'd have a harder time if I also couldn't use canola, sesame, avocado, coconut... Let alone other soy products like tofu.

How do you motivate the embedded assumption that there is no such thing as harmless variation?
I think an important obstacle to "I'll apologize if they'll apologize" situations is that people often have very specific needs for the traits of an apology they're receiving, doing it correctly without instructions is a very important signal of being on the same page about what went wrong, and incorrect apologies can be downright insulting (such as "I'm sorry you feel that way", a classic, or, "I'm sorry about X" "this whole time you thought I was mad about X??? I don't give a crap about X!") The existence of a hypothetical apology doesn't serve the same purposes as a fully featured one.
We tried to buy a place around the corner (not right adjacent, but no crossing streets, so we could have let pretty small kids walk it alone), but we could only afford to lowball it and didn't get it. We don't want to move because moving is horrible but if the place burned down or something we would probably all or mostly all move together.
