> you have to answer all of the opposing side's questions truthfully

What if you don't know the answer, are only probabilistically sure of the answer, or the answer isn't a simple yes or no?

I see lots of courtroom videos and congress videos where the idiot keeps pressing for a "yes or no" but the reality of the universe is that lots of things are more nuisanced than just a yes or no.
