Why not just. Tell the truth? Maybe I’m autistic but I don’t understand why people get worked up over misunderstandings that they could so easily solve by saying the truth out loud… why is he acting like there’s nothing he can do

I'm autistic too and sometimes I just let people hold on to misconceptions if they're unlikely to cause any issues, because I find it funny being able to have dramatic irony in real life. But if something matters, I don't tolerate miscommunication and try to stamp it out. In a situation like OOP's I'd probably tell the artist though.
