Matilal, a modern exponent of Jaina Philosophy, states that anekanta views include both 'Yes' and 'No', But it does not mean at all that it has negative approach to consider things. It only points out towards the consideration for even the negative points whether it has some attributes or not, and which creativity can it do. And, thus by such round-up of considering thing makes us aware of some aspects of even the 'Negative'.
