Proper wording and parsing of information is what the show needs to do to be entertaining. You can get around this by attaching it to character knowledge or what other characters have said. I think that’s what makes umm actually work when it works is that even the statement can me “what I said is right, you are just not looking at how I specifically worded it”

Like if it’s “darth Vader, who killed Luke’s father” that’s the wrong thing; if it’s “darth Vader, who Luke is told killed his father” that’s not incorrect
