【成语词典】:直:公正、正直。以公道的态度对待自己怨恨的人,把恩惠施与对自己有恩的人。
《论语·宪问》:“或曰:‘以德报怨何如?’子曰:‘何以报德?以直报怨,以德报德。’”

Being clear about love and enmity at another level simply means, "to repay kindness with kindness, and to repay enmity with justice." It does not mean to be lenient with people no matter what.
再进一层说,明恩怨,在原则上是要「以德报德;以直报怨」,并不是做没原则的滥好人或乡愿。
