So despite having read the definition of "nuance" too many times to count, I still can't grasp the meaning. I've search every single definition website for help and the only common definition I could find was "subtle difference". But when I plug the definition into sentences that have the word, it makes no sense. Like in the context of a "nuanced discussion". So it would be a discussion with subtle differences? Subtle differences in comparison to what? Like what would it be different from? Could someone please explain to me what nuance means in the following contexts:
"The complex and tragic relationship could have been a high point in the season, but that would have required nuance and after 3 seasons now, I just can't make excuses anymore."
"Ms. Fyfield is remarkably thorough in her psychological profiles, giving subtle nuances to characters who are mere passers-by in this psychodrama"
"A rich, artistic performance filled with nuance"
Like it makes zero sense when I plug in the definition that every website and every dictionary gives me. Like "A rich, artistic performance filled with subtle differences". The main problem is it doesn't say what the nuanced thing is subtly different from. Any help will be appreciated.
