It's also a limitation of human-human communication, and why nation's have ambassadors (who presumably have a shared context from which to start from when dealing with a foreign nation).

I don't think diplomacy and ambassadors are there to handle ambiguity in communication.
There are there to handle conflicting interests and goals.
To that end, ambiguity in communication is something they use on purpose, not something they're there to solve.
