"Sometimes full disclosure can damage someone's self-esteem, and reality isn't always best expressed in full and can be self-indulgent based on the person's intention. I believe that intentions are everything and should come from a place of integrity. In those instances, honesty isn't always the best policy."

I think honesty is the best policy, but I also know there are times when it is important to be sensitive in the delivery of honest feedback.

You are absolutely correct! I recommend giving the interviewer an example of this kind of situation if you have faced it in the past.
