According to whom????? I don't know the proper term for this, but I know there's a name for it other than 'presumptive' or 'subjective'.
I find vagueness, the unknown, to be the impetus for a thirst for knowledge - that stirs a desire to seek - not something that necessarily requires avoidance (and in accordance with you,at a prioritized level at that!) Rather than avoid, it can be acknowledged and used for inspiration.

"black and white thinking".
if you ask an acquaintance for the recipe of a dish you've sampled at a social, do you expect it to be vague. Would you be satisfied if it were vague?
If you ask someone for a phone number or a business address, do expect them to be vague? Would you be satisfied if they were vague?
Do you think the Emergency Medical System could function using Vague information?
I think you shot that arrow without taking aim.
