Jack Doughty
: or rather "Yes, it's more of a yes than a no". I see. Then the whole sentence is just stating the blatantly obvious and is a total waste of time.

Thank you Jack. However, the first 'Yes' is the subject of the sentence here. ++ Well, I think Angeliki's guess is right, but I also think that my translation conveys the intended idea.

: "Yes" is... or "Yes" means... I can only guess that this is a questionnaire where you have to commit yourself to a YES or a NO. Even if you're only slightly positive, you have to say YES. My conjecture...

"Yes" is largely an affirmative answer, not a negative one.
