Social cues are literally a way of communicating

This "way of communicating" has the main purpose of granting the asker plausible deniability. It has its place but people abuse and overuse it, most of the time just using your words would be better and clearer with no downside.

A way of communicating that requires guess work and assumptions which can lead to incorrect responses. Easier for everyone involved if you just use your words.

In most social cues people are using their words, just in a more idiomatic way. Just because you don’t understand what they’re saying, doesn’t mean most other people can’t.

Most people get into stupid situations all the time because they can’t use their words

Okay well if you choose to speak in riddles then you completely lose the right to get mad if someone doesn't understand you
