I would've thought it actually came down to how much you lied. But regarding the question that was given out there...

Yeah, I've considered lying, but not necessarily to deceive. I'd be up to date with all necessary API's within less than a week, but my point is that because I've not had any real-world experience, would it be bad to say a white lie in an industry that relies so massively on past-experience?

And has anyone else lied? Or am I the only one who would consider lying about something small in order to achieve something better?

So it's about acceptable lies and unacceptable lies. I suppose it is all a matter of opinion which lies are acceptable and which are not.

Santa Claus for example is a well accepted lie which is okay to propagate.

Yeah, you're totally right. Except about missing the point.
