So we know Q likes mind games and alluding to things. Think logical. So I got to thinking based on some information I have regarding certain...groups.
What I noticed is that there is a tendency in said groups to bypass restrictions on secrecy by asking tangential questions to the one you wish to divulge with. In this process the recipient of the question is expected to deduce logically what the truth is. This allows the sharer to shield themselves with "I didn't tell them. They figured it out" and the information gets shared. Personally, I think it's childish logic, but if that's how it's done in Rome, that's how it's done in Rome.
My point here is that Q operates almost EXACTLY the same way with many questions. It really triggered* my autism-level pattern recognition when I first noticed it. As a result, I think there's high chance that Q is at least in the orbit of such groups (assuming it's not a red herring).
What this means for my original point is that there are likely two tiers to this process. Obviously, if you share secrets through a Socratic method, your peers will eventually get mad, but maybe overlook it due to norms. However, if you share something truly sensitive, they're going to ding you anyways. Excuses be damned.
In other words, there are the things you can allude to, and the things you can absolutely never refer to. This is my theory.
So that end, I'm wondering if anyone has done a deep dive of things Q has explicitly avoided talking about or answering in situations where it seemed odd or out of place. We're ideally talking moments where Q would be talking in relation to a subject, a question may get asked, and Q either ignores it outright or deflects in some fashion (like not actually addressing it). These will be tells of something Q cannot talk about.
I know this will invite a lot of galactic-level weirdness, but we're mature enough to filter for that, right? We're looking at something more down-to-earth, less Alex Jones inter-dimensional demons and lizard people.
Think of it like "blind spots" in the Q narrative. What's hiding in the darkness? What was missed?
Deduction alone, sure. That's why you apply known truth to test the validity of it. Until it gets confirmed in a sufficient manner that's why it stays a hypothesis or theory. Without deduction you don't have science.
Without speculation and challenging of the accepted knowledge, you end up in a status quo. If you don't challenge inherited knowledge once in a while, you're vulnerable to historic lies.
The poison is in the amount and application method.
Q's response to the question about alien life was quite telling. I think that ETs figure BIGLY in whatever is coming.

Assuming there are aliens, why haven't they been revealed already?
Option 1: Global panic based solely upon reveal. I don't really buy it these days, but maybe 100 years ago. With mass media we have whole generations conditioned to accept the possibility of alien life and all sorts of wacky forms of it from Star Trek to Rick and Morty. This isn't what's holding us back.
Option 2: We're not allowed to know by our "leaders." This is the more ominous option because Option 1 is reasonably ruled out. This leads into a whole realm of speculation itself, but I see the two branches here as either cooperative or adversarial between our top dogs and them. A hybrid of cooperation and adversarial would hilariously enough be akin to the movie Men In Black.
Option 3: The "X" factor or "wildcard" scenarios. For some reason the reveal of aliens to the masses will have an effect we publicly aren't aware of yet, but is deemed undesirable. This would make sense in a Lovecraftian scenario where such beings can ravage the minds of humanity with ease. We also cannot rule out these "aliens" are also religious in nature and such a reveal may trigger a significant event, but the classification as "alien" would be a misnomer in this scenario. Maybe the reveal puts our leadership in a bad light and now they're painted into a corner. Many exotic possibilities fall under this group.
Honestly, don't know. Don't particularly care until I know what it means in practical terms, but even as children we can comprehend the vastness of space and the likelihood it would spawn life other than ourselves. This particular topic actually interests me the least from Q.
or perhaps the aliens told the government not too.
