    It’s very relevant, it being codified is the foundation of your argument. Lies can be codified and laws can be ignored. And both often are. Sure it’s not a traditional lie, it’s more like a lie of implication. Like labeling your product “0% poison” and running a big ad campaign about how your competitors don’t say their products are poison-free. Just pick a different word that doesn’t already apply to all food.
