Would this answer suffice? No, people are people, no, maybe, maybe? In my mind, this would be a stupid answer to a question that requires introspection and maybe also take time to explain why I think what I think and potentially, other beliefs that could be impacted by making a stand on this view. Technical discussions are similar - you want to explain why you think it is so.. After all, if the question were so simple as to have a very simple answer, why would you ask it in the first place? You also want to point out other things that can be impacted by the answer or by each of the decision arms. Sometime, lack of clarity also comes from unstated assumptions of what you know and what others think you know.. but if someone makes that assumption, you are going to say they are not directly addressing the point. I think it would help in thinking conversation is a 2-way street... you provide appropriate noises and feedback to get what you want, while listening to answers.
