Instead, there is a moment of silence. Even if it helped him edge off the suicidal bits, that was still breaking a personal rule. Just giving him a 'yes' after that kind of cruelty is Wrong. It's not an equivalent secret. But human souls Work differently - explaining it in a way that's 'understood' is translating something Beyond Words. Painting the Mona Lisa on a stamp, while blindfolded, and also the Mona Lisa is trying to sell you some weird diamond-bedazzled satuette of herself. The statuette is also a bird whistle.
That metaphor got a bit away from us, sorry. The narrative blames Da Vinci. ]
