There is no such thing - as others have demonstrated by example. We keep trying to make things less ambiguous. Contracts that once took one page now take hundreds. And still the contract has ambiguities.
As cybernetic research demonstrates - which is why computers cannot comprehend conversations - everything is stated within implied context. And once those contexts were defined by the additional 99 pages in that contract, still, more 'context' remains undefined.
Only in an ideal world is anything, defined by human communication, "not ambiguous or vague in any sense." Everything must be interpreted within unstated context and other assumptions. It's called a meeting of the minds - not a statement of absolutes. No way around reality regardless of what rhetoric proclaims.
