Because you are. If you want people to think you are aboveboard, you have to be transparent.
The Gov't of the USA is telling me that the secret spying they are doing is only being used against, "terrorists". They assure me that trustworthy people have reviewed it.
You are doing much the same. People whom you have legally constrained from speaking about it have been told the details.
If we are 1: People you think will be of service to your cause and 2: willing to promise to not share the details, we can be let in on the secret.
That's witholding information. Why? Because what you tell your critics is what matters. What the true believers see isn't public.
