The ones I saw actually said those things.
I have also had fun with those people in court when I get them to admit they told it to my clients and then point out how their later objection when my client took them up on it was setting my client up to fail. They don't get to say one thing but mean another. That is total crap. They have to tell the client all the rules or they don't get to pull out and use secret ones or undisclosed ones for their own benefit.
When I get to do that to them- it is always a moment of great pleasure for me.
