Crossword Genius

So naive about avoidance (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

evasion

'avoidance' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

'so naive about' is the wordplay.
'about' is an anagram indicator.
'so'+'naive'='sonaive'
'sonaive' is an anagram of 'EVASION'.

(Other definitions for evasion that I've seen before include "A dodgy answer or excuse" , "Illegal avoidance (of tax)" , "Cunning" , "The act of dodging the issue." , "Circumvention" .)

I've seen this clue in The Mirror.
