Hmmm... I think you kinda do have to be that straightforward really. Otherwise the point might not get across. If it helps, I don't think it sounds at all rude or unreasonable or anything.

I hope it goes well, and that they're understanding. I usually find people are a lot more understanding of such things than I expect.
Thanks for this!
