French speakers value intellectual directness. Using 'en clair' is a sign of respect for the listener's intellect. In Quebec, 'en clair' is understood but 'dire les vraies affaires' is often preferred for the same meaning. Used similarly to France, often in political contexts to cut through bureaucratic language. Used in professional settings, often to avoid the 'politeness trap' of Swiss-French communication.
