I would say the logic resonates well. Subterfuge and Silence I've gotten, but I've never put much into Subtlety.

I can think of about 4 cases I've seen subtlety attempted and it has failed to produce results in 3 of the 4 (the jury is still open on the 4th). I suppose it's all in the delivery. However, I can't help but quote the gaurd in the movie "Cool Hand Luke": 'What we've got here is... failure to communicate. Some men you just can't reach.'
