📖What it means
The reviewer could not honestly call it pass or fail — the evidence supports neither. Recording the ambiguity is the point: a forced verdict would be a fabricated one.
⚖️What it is NOT
The neighbours this word is most often confused with, and the line between them.
Not: Vacuous
Grey zone means the evidence was ambiguous; vacuous means there was nothing to review.
Not: Review incomplete
Grey zone is a finished review with no clear answer; incomplete is a review that never finished.
