What might she really be communicating?

wow! You sure have been reading a lot.
Okay- so you already know to believe none of what they say and half of what they do.

How long have you been married? Kids?

I actually think it's good that she is telling you her objections. (Keep in mind, I'm no expert.) I do sell real estate, though. When people ask "what if ____ happens in the future" that means they are thinking about the future with that house and are open to be influenced by my answers.

Now, I always answer honestly and see if I can ferret out more about their objection to see if I can get to the heart of the matter. If it turns out that the house doesn't make sense once I get deeper, then we move on. If it does make sense, then we start to talk about the positives.

She has been more talkative. She seems to have a short fuse....kinda reminds me of a scared animal. She peeks out a little bit to see if it's safe; and then if she gets spooked she's off again...but then she comes back. She's curious to see if the changes are real. She challenging you to see what you'll do.

Let her set the pace. Be steady.
That's my 2 cents. FWIW.
