I honestly feel like pollsters do a pretty solid job at framing their questions to cut down on all that annoying ambiguity.
Take most surveys, for instance. They usually give you five distinct choices:
"Strongly agree," "somewhat agree," then that middle-of-the-road undecided option,
followed by "somewhat disagree" and finally "strongly disagree."
Don't you think just having those different levels of response forces people to actually stop and think? I bet we'd see way fewer people hiding behind a neutral answer compared to those old-school Yes or No polls.
