I think that confusing A, B or C with "the Universe, all of it" is hardly grounds to call someone an idiot.

There isn't anything of importance in cosmology that's a clean multiple of 14.6 billion LY. Anything under discussion at that scale would by influenced by the Hubble expansion.

But, yeah, being misinformed about cosmology doesn't make you an idiot. Hyperbole.
