Dishonesty breeds distrust, disrespect and horrible communication.

Whether a Dominant or a submissive, lying is a huge red flag.
Lying precludes any of the Four Pillars from occurring.
Communication is useless if you can be sure you are hearing the truth.
Honesty is obviously out the window.
Trust can never be grown when lies are the basis.
Respect will never be established with deceit.
As a Dominant, if the submissive is lying to you, how can you trust them in your home? How can you trust that they will not turn on you and make false claims to the authorities?
No matter how much enjoyment the Dominant gets during play, is it worth the lack of trust, respect, honesty and doubts on a day to day basis?
As a Submissive, if the Dominant is lying to you, how can you rely on the Dominant for your safety, your health and wellbeing, physical, emotional and mental? How can you be sure the teachings of the Dominant are true?
No matter how the Dominant makes you feel during play, is it worth the possibility that the ultimate goal from the beginning is to harm you in some way? Can you trust the Lying Dominant to observe limits and boundaries, even in extreme cases to acknowledge if you revoke consent?
Anyone can have difficulty communicating, trusting others and showing respect, all because of bad experiences or upbringing. But they can all be worked on.
Those that lie with frequency, because of any reason show a red flag that can’t be ignored or reasoned with. Whether it is out of compulsion, or deceit or pure evil, lying cannot be tolerated if you are going to trust your partner.
One lie creates doubt that lasts, and it should, sometimes forever. Your life, or freedom could depend on realizing it.

the most insidious lie is the lie of omission

To be practical, lying is too much work. You have to remember what you said, when you said it and who you said it too. Then there is always the possibility that someone will call your bluff and you're busted. To me, being dishonest causes the regret monster to rear it's ugly head and that is one monster that will never be sated.
