If such evasive speech is the cultural norm, then it should be handled in localization. After all it is about adapting a software to local language and preferences. It is not merely running strings through Google Translate. Taking that evasive speech approach, which is considered polite in one culture, to another culture may very well be rude. I usually consider it rude if some direct question is evaded instead of answered.
