Well, all I'd clarify is that it's not the characters "are not being clear about what they want", it's that what they want isn't clear to them for reasons both shown and alluded-to in the show. Not going to argue about whether it's better or worse for the story that way... but a lot of shows I've personally enjoyed have demonstrated this sort of emotional ambiguity (again, not just "I'm not telling you", but "I really don't know how I feel yet"). As I said, opinions...
