If we're making small talk and mentioning the factual disparity offends and the statement makes little difference to the conversation, then I concede your point. There is no reason to say it. In fact, saying it would be quite rude.
However, if the factual statement has a material impact on the conversation, you have a responsibility to speak the truth.
It doesn't matter how hurt your feelings may be, it is absolutely despicable to try to silence those speaking the truth, regardless of how it may offend your sensibilities.
If you read this thread, you would think you can jump on Upwork, hire some guy in India, and build a complex SPA or similar and save yourself some $$$. As a matter of fact, you can't. And it's important to say that so that people don't waste their time and money.
