If everyone told the absolute truth to everyone, I can see there being just as many fights going on as if there was the occasional white lie...

You're not getting the big picture, Teal. Of course, if all of us suddenly develop telepathic abilities, the world will become quite a HUGE mess. I had in mind a more natural and gradual transformation...
Imagine a newborn telepath baby, living in a world where everybody is also a telepath. He/she would grow up not only telling the truth, but would develop a extremely high understanding of human nature, so that even his/her thoughts could never cause harm to anybody else.
Pick up any scenario, any situation, and I'll show you how it could be sorted out very easily, if everybody would be telepaths.
