Yes, I intentionally didn't go into to much detail and I think that's obscured what I was trying to say. I explicitly tell the candidate that I may defend points I disagree with and that I want them to push back if they disagree. Furthermore, the interview question where I do this is about a hypothetical project where we are prioritizing work that needs to be done in order to ship a project. While I didn't offer the clarity in the earlier comment, I don't think there's a way it could fairly be interpreted as lying or deceiving.
