If you ask me a question that I don’t want to answer, and me saying “I don’t think I should answer that” would itself reveal information that I don’t want to reveal, then I will probably lie.
We could decline to answer some questions that aren’t too revealing so that people won’t know which is which. The cost of hiding some innocuous things seems much lower than the benefit of being trusted.
