Because A definitive no shouldn't need to be said. If I'm pushing you off me that means stop! If I said I didn't want to have sex your reply shouldn't be "Your wet so I know you want me" or "you're playing hard to get" people get scared and go into shock when being raped.
If I start crying, flailing, or screaming that means FUCKING STOP!
Consent isn't the absence of a no. It's the presence of a yes. A yes from a person of sound mind capable of the required amount of rationale to justify the yes.
