Does anyone here get uneasy about grey areas, grey areas in general?

In social situations, they drive me crazy because what is grey to me is often perfectly clear to whoever I'm with.
If I'm not dealing with other people, they don't cause me any problems. Most of life is grey. Be prudent and roll with it.
But isn't it strange, I noticed each person has different expectations so if they aren't precise even a NT could make mistakes and not think or do it the same way.It depends on the situation but yes. I have a hard time with unclear expectations. I want crystal clear expectations. I will double and triple check to make sure I understand exactly what the expectations are (I understand that this annoys some people) because I don't want to do the wrong thing because something wasn't clear.
In situations where I'm just expected to know these things I get not only uncomfortable, but angry that the expectation exists in the first place.
I guess autistic people will strongly disagree with each other if they have different opinions, and they will be very opposite. That means they might argue easier and tolerate those views less.I tend to have black and white thinking all day long. A grey area for me is agreeing to disagree with someone because I don't want to argue.

I do like to have known expectations in social situations. It's easier. But when discussing, and thinking about, larger issues then I tend to reside in the grey areas.Does anyone here get uneasy about grey areas, grey areas in general?
How does this make you uneasy? Because the artist appears to be hypocritical?
Weirdly, I tend to think everything has gray areas. I see both sides, all sides, often. This has frequently been interpreted by others as being either argumentative or negative. I say, " but on the other hand..." all the time in conversations. By now I should have learned to just agree or shut up. But I think its interesting and fun to toss around different perspectives. Too bad most people don't think so.
