Fastidiousness or indecision? In either case an unwillingness to commit. A refusal to take sides is a sign of judgment, until its a sign of cowardice. The difference between reaching across a fence and sitting on it. "The best lack all conviction", Yeats says. No, the best just take their time to be convinced. Yet how do we tell a diplomat from a politician? Is there a difference?
Does that answer your question?

that last line is masterly.
Indecisive, and fastidious people - both suspend judgment for as long as it is possible. But there is hell lot of difference in the way they operate. Fastidious ones are not clueless. That makes them so much more tolerable.
I'll take that as a no.

Anon2: Yes.
Falstaff, yes, I was just putting it in my own words.
