Also the vast majority of human communication, which is so full of implications instead of stating things directly to determine who is part of their in group or to avoid conflict that people have a hard time just being clear and concise when they really should be.

I agree - there’s some large accesibility-like issues with communication, which causes issues for people where it isn’t their first language, the neurodiverse, or in safety critical applications. The /s is a fine early example of that.
That said, if everyone stuck to basic facts and focussed on clarity rather than content, the world would be a mega boring place.

I’m just saying they should be more clear about the content in situations where clarity is necessary. It isn’t like science is boring because the communication about black holes and nuclear explosions is clear and direct in those settings. Science is the best example of blending clarity where it is needed and humor/sarcasm/throwing shade for fun when clarity isn’t as important.
