They think in whatever logic (two-state) is the one that has prevailed
and stood the test of time. Why should people know about three- or
four-state logic if it's not been used in the real world. Two-state
logic *is* real-world logic.
No, it isn't. Nothing in the real world is yes or no.
50 shades of grey is what we have, and Boolean logic is entirely a human
mental invention designed for simplicity with no regard for accuracy.
