Yes, and then there's the advertising get-out-of-jail-free card of "puffery". You can lie all you want in your marketing materials as long as your lawyers can convince a judge that no reasonable person would actually believe what you said.

It's this kind of of nonsense that led me to consider all marketing messages and claims to be lies by default.
