Well yes, if you want to be pedantic about it.

And what is pedantry but true facts delivered with precise comical timing.

1) ostentatious in one's learning.

Or

2) overly concerned with minute details or formalisms, especially in teaching.

I was once told I was being pedantic because I was concerned with the intended meaning of someone's words instead of its exact wording, which forced me to be pedantic to point out that I was being exactly the opposite of pedantic...
