You say it’s not corruption but it’s still shady as hell.

I think it’s reasonable to say any shady stuff is a form of corruption

Shady as hell, sure. Misleading? At least misdirecting. But corruption? No.

If you have an olive green shirt and a grass green shirt, you can call both of them green, but calling the olive one grass green is a mistake.

I think you need to think carefully as to what corruption means. I would go so far as to say man's inability to recognise things as corrupt is a corruption of man.
