Or hey, we could just be dealing with a topic that we previously thought had a high degree of 'clarity', but in reality is far more complex and nuanced. We're struggling to address this newly recognized complexity with terms that many people still view from an older (I'd use the word 'outdated') standpoint, so of course there is going to be some disagreement and confusion while we figure this stuff out. Just because this issue is new to many, many people and that we're stuck using old verbiage until we can agree on new terms (IF we agree new terms are needed at all), doesn't mean there's anything inherently wrong with the lack of 'clarity' we currently see.
Clarity about very complex issues is hard to come by. Who knew.
