The act of articulating confusion can have a self-identifying effect. It inserts your ego into the narrative where it may not be useful. It takes attention. It takes emotional resources. It enables shortsighted trading in your ego market.

It can be valuable to trust your mind to work through problems "on its own". That is, without your conscious narration of the process. You need not always know what you're currently thinking about, or what you're trying to do.

It hinders radical rethinking and healthy self-contradiction. If you're explicitly a person who is working on problem X, your mind will demand apology before it allows you to switch to problem Y. You are making yourself into the blind man, touching only one part of the elephant.
