Absolutely. We are not aware of most of our assumptions that are based in our common heritage, culture, and embodiment. But an external observer could easily notice them and tease out an awful lot of information about us by doing so.

Details that don't need to be transferred are those which are either known
by or unnecessary to the recipient.  The former is a guess (unless the
details were transmitted previously) and the latter is an assumption based
upon partial knowledge of the recipient.  In a perfect, infinite world,
details could and should always be transferred.  In the real world, time
and
computational constraints means that trade-offs need to occur.  This is
where the essence of intelligence comes into play -- determining which of
the trade-offs to take to get optimal perfomance (a.k.a. domain competence)
