The complexity is brought in by politics to sway voters. Ideally if everyone was educated enough to realize specifics of the issues than being frank would be appropriate; however, since many are not familiar with the specifics the broadening of stances will be more appropriate at targeting individuals to vote in their favor. When politics are introduced with such levity it's important that you receive as much voters as possible whether through labeling or elaborating women's rights not to have their child due to health, grievances, etc. The underlying theme here is to persuade individuals.
