An equal problem holds for people who confuse "precision" with "wisdom."

[Arlo]
I can't think of any wise people with muddy thinking. In fact, I think the Zen Masters are among the most precise and clear out there. While they understand that "all this is just an analogy", they choose their analogies artfully and their words are always exact and precise.

When I listen to the Dalai Lama speak, I think "now there is a clear mind", not "wow, he is misusing words, unable to clarify his thoughts, and shows an overall confusion and incoherence, he must be brilliant!"
