No, it's actually because you don't think it's wrong in the first place.

I understand why people prefer to lie to protect other's emotions, or why people prefer being high-status rather than being right, but I disagree with that, I think it's wrong.

That's a false dichotomy - there is a whole range of options between 'lying to save someones feelings' and 'being rude'.
