You wrote,[...you think that other posters here (redacted by respondent) as to what someone is or is not trying to say...].
Sometimes I am unsure as to what a poster wants others to think by what they wrote. And if the poster responds to my request with clarification to resolve the matter, then I could have the opportunity to respond accordingly. This is because in my thinking , I would need to jump to a conclusion if I did not get the clarification requested. That does not mean that others could conclude by what is on the face of the statement. Sometimes statements could be ambiguous to me or just lacking in what I need to know in order to make a conclusion and I do not want to assume a conclusion that could be false.
As far as the clarification not coming, I can not respond accordingly, but others that think that they know what the intent of a poster is as to what they want readers to think by what they wrote can do so, But what if they are wrong?
