A sensitive question is one for which the answer is an Unknown Known.
Put differently, answers in that quadrant are the ones the questioned individual would like to avoid. As long as you, the asker, avoid asking them, there is a peaceful equilibrium. Once you ask such, you become a hostile.
Or put in the original context - Unknowns Knowns are coverups.

Or you will prefer to not having heard the answer. Most of the time it is also possible to deduce it partially. (but careful about that) Unless it is something very unusual.
