Significado
To present with careful detail.
Contexto cultural
The Dutch 'Poldermodel' values consensus and looking at all sides. Being 'nuanced' is a sign of respect for the complexity of society. In Flanders, the phrase is equally common in formal settings, though Flemish speakers might use 'nuancering' slightly more often in academic contexts. In global academic culture, this phrase is a 'hedge.' It protects the writer from being proven wrong by acknowledging that there are exceptions. Quality Dutch newspapers pride themselves on 'nuance.' A headline that is too sensational is often criticized for 'gebrek aan nuance' (lack of nuance).
The 'But' Buffer

Don't Overuse
If you use it in every sentence, you'll sound like a politician who is afraid to take a stand.
